Archangeleong’s Infinity The Game Blog

  Hǎidào (Hacker) I prefered painting this guy more than his sniper buddy as the pose lets you see all of the miniature detail better.  I always enjoy the invisible hacking-fu pose of the hackers a lot on Infinity models.  It's cool to see a Hǎidào team in my colours.  

  Hǎidào (Multi Sniper Rifle) I wasn't that excited about the pose on this guy, but his weapon loadout appears useful so what the hey. It was cool seeing him in my colour scheme for his unit however.

  Húláng Shocktroopers I built and painted my second wave of IA in two batches in October and November 2020.  The first batch had more conventional colours starting with the Guijia and ending in the pilot.  For my second batch I did the odd bods of more unconventional Yu Jing colours beginning with this guy.   Lot's of people don't like the Húláng for some reason. It may be because of the skull helmet that reminds them of a 40K chaplain.  But I think it has more to do with the studio colour scheme that doesn't quite do the model justice by breaking up the silhouette profile of the model in an unsatisfying way.   I happen to be a fan of the model and think that he is quite sinister and badass. With that in mind I painted him mostly black with only splash of yellow and went for a Sith Lord like vibe with him.  I did very faint OSL from the sword but you can barely see it in the photos.  I slightly reposed his left arm so his torso wouldn't...

Guijia Pilot I'm a big fan of the cheesecake pilots in Infinity. This lady is up there with the best.  Super sexy and drives a big robot, what's not to like!

  Zúyŏng  (HMG) So this guy is the workhorse of the Zuyong. Straightforward to paint and join the ranks of my IA.  Interesting that no pistol holsters were sculpted, unlike all the other IA guys, so I hade space to paint some detail on the thigh panels.
