First painted models.

I have started by painting the first three models with varying success. The plastic makes normal painting techniques not work. Like edge highlighting it’s like trying to paint a snake and the paint does not go where you would expect it.

I have also seen mould lines. I knew these were present but when trying to remove some it chews up the plastic so if I couldn’t get to it with a knife to cut it off it’s staying.

Needless to say I have found myself in a position again that I need to remember this is a board game. But feel free to criticise or comment as if they are not.

Excellent work. Maximus came out strikingly. I struggled with him. I’m a bit further along on this than you but way further behind (as in zero) on Infinity. I’m glad I decided to tackle Aristeia! first because, coming into wargaming from board gaming, the Aristeia! minis are quite good compared to many games. Now I have the Infinity minis to look forward to! If you want to see the CustomMeeple terrain/scenery for this in action I have one snap on my project blog ). I can take more if you’d like. I’m largely pleased with it–though it isn’t quite as… Read more »
