INFINITY IKARI COMPANY: Druze Shock Team These guys are badass and have got such a varied set of tools of destruction. All their tactical gear and the dark colours I ended up using makes them look kinda like a SWAT team. It was hard to get the armour highlights right as the vests are cloth covered. At first the highlights looked too bright so I ended up washing dark blue over all the armour to tone them down. Fairly satisfied with the final results despite initial setbacks with painting these guys. I enjoyed painting the HMG lady the most but it is hard to pick a favorite as they are all individually such cool minis. No Merc army should be without a bunch of Druze ;-) Druze (Chain Colt) Druze (Marksman Rifle) Druze (Hacker Combi) Druze (HMG) Druze Link Team More pics at: https://archangelelonginfinitythega.../infinity-ikari-company-druze-shock-team.html
@archangeleong maybe you already said along this (long) topic, but I would love to know the recipe for your red. Assume you're using grey/bone to highlight it instead of yellow? What about the deepest red? Thanks in advance.
No Worries. (looks like my paint pics dropped of stupid forum again). I do red with this tricolor: A lot of mixing is required to get the highlight done (at least 3 stages) and I rarely go to pure salmon rose.
INFINITY IKARI COMPANY: Fat Yuan Yuan This guy is the best! Fat, loves eating noodles, beer keg rocket pack, how can you not be charmed by this portly, fun loving, fella? This guy was one of the main reasons I started Ikari Co (the other was Druze lady). Why are all the best minis limited edition?. Painted the two versions in different colours to mix things up a bit... Are they brothers or the same guy? Enjoyed painting the OSL and the beer keg the most. I'm an amature when it comes to OSL and I was too conservative with the OSL flames at first so redid it and am now I'm happier with the final result. I redid the green to a bluer tone on the Eating Action guy much later on, which was a pain but blended better with the whole army. Both these guys hold a fond place in my Infinity heart...

Nice work. Do my eyes deceive me, again, or is the "just landing" Fat Yuan Yuan's face painted to look like Hellois?
What's not to love about the Fat Yuan Yuan? He is da phattest! Lo Pan's noodles are to die for man! Even hurtling into a combat drop won't stop Fat YY from chowing down on his favourite chow mein. Will he get an official release one day? His profile dropped into Deadalus Falls recently so here's hoping...
Thanks Knauf, your comments mean a lot. I am very pleased with how this guy turned out, especially since he is uniquely converted and the way the armour lighting turned out.
HellLois is the online name for the CB employee who is in charge of the ITS stuff, among other duties. He's the bearded guy in plaid shirt and bow tie in this gif.
