About the Project

I will be slowly working my way through painting the League of Infamy Kickstarter. As well as using the League of Infamy miniatures to play League of Infamy I intend to rebase the minis to Vanguard and Kings of War size (where required) before painting. This will also give me some more miniatures to add to Frostgrave.

Primed the figures with IDF Israeli Sand Grey Vallejo Surface Primer.  Airbrushed Titanium White Liquitex Acrylic Ink to try and give a bit of a Zenithal.

First time using the white ink and I need to experiment more with this.  Maybe reducing the pressure or adding matt medium.  I won’t be glazing directly over this so doesn’t matter too much this time.

Had to divide week 6 into 3 parts to get it to upload as my picture files are probably too large.  All but one of the core game minis ready to prime.  I tried using GSW green putty acrylic filler for the first time on the gaps.  The rest I used Milliput superfine.
