Fantastic ! Great models and your painting really shows off the sculpts, especially in the faces! I'd say that the one thing you might have missed on them, and I truly appreciate that it's not needed, is a bit of grime, dirt, sweat and smoke on those pristine faces. You've painted them too cleanly for their own good lol :D
True. I thought about grime on the faces of some characters but it just looks messy on this scale. I did however add the scratches on Ripley’s face that she has at the end of the movie.
@infyrana When I get around to faces I aim to make them clean unless I decide differently. Painting dirty faces requires more work than painting them clean.
INFINITY YU JING INVINCIBLE ARMY: Shang Ji Shang Ji Invincibles The golden boys of Yu Jing. These guys were done towards the end of 2021. Very happy to have them join the ranks of my powered armour IA dudes. They are both chonky and spikey.

INFINITY NOMADS TUNGUSKA: Zonds Zonds So begins my Nomads project for the year. Thought I'd start the project with something bigger than just troops. I stuck mostly to the studio colours (as I have done with my Nomad army) but changed the markings a bit in order to fit in with with my Tunguska Sectorial Army. Although they were easier to paint than old metal REMs (and a much needed updated sculpt), cleaning up these siocast models was a pain and not much fun. That said they still turned out ok.

Nice and clean as always. My siocast experiences closely mirror yours though. The fact that these came out in plastic was enough reason for me to opt for the Pano ones for my Nomads instead, even though I do like the new sculpts.
Thanks. I use the official colours. In fact a did a painting guide on this a while back: https://archangelelonginfinitythegame.blogspot.com/2020/04/yu-jing-painting-guide-yan-huo.html
INFINITY NOMADS TUNGUSKA: Securitate (Link Team) Securitate (Link Team) I added these guys to fully flesh out my Securitate team. They are the reason I went with Tunguska as I like their aesthetic the best out of Nomad line troops. I especially like the lady sculp the best. The whole team looks pretty great together now they are all done.

Beautiful lot, I like that clean corporate look, the CSU miniature could fit perfectly with their design, but at Tunguska it can only be a proxy for something.
NFINITY NOMADS TUNGUSKA: Grenzer (Link Team) Grenz Security Team Grenzers, Grenz Security Team Black, black and more black. Team of Grezers ready to roll out. These guys seem to be the forever plus one of the Tunguska box sets (you cant get them individually). Pretty simple to paint really.' Happy that they now have a little team together.

INFINITY NOMADS TUNGUSKA: Spektrs Boarding Shotgun Spektr ( Boarding Shotgun) I always liked this mini placing the mine. Not so interested in the ancient Spektr he comes with however so didn'd bother with her. Now I got the two modern Spektrs who can get up to some sneaky shenanigans together.

INFINITY NOMADS TUNGUSKA: Puppetactica Company Puppet Masters These guys were a fun diversion from the norm. Lots of character and a splash of colour on the bots. Puppet Master Spoiler: More Pics PuppetBots Spoiler: More Pics Puppetactica Company
INFINITY NOMADS TUNGUSKA: Cheerkillers Cheerkillers These gals were the most detailed in this Nomad project. Took much longer to paint than others. But I like them the best as they have lots of personality and ethnic diversity. Tunguska’s Angels! The shoes were fun to paint like Converse All Stars (the bee's knees of fashion when I was 8 no less!). It was hard to take a group photo with a dark backgrond with my dinky phone camera because the blondie was so much brighter than the others and the contrast was hard to get right and the focus was thrown off.
