Well, we used to have an animated nosebleed emoji (in the previous forum software)... I keep trying to get a couple more of the emojis we had then in the new forum, but Koni kinda kicked that in the teeth when he said those were on a Dear Santa letter...
This is the first O-Yoroi that i have seen that i like. And Mushashi is just out of this world. I am once more impressed by your painting skills. Got a little painting depression right now because of you . Greetz Oni
You just made me want to order an O-Yoroi! Love that conversion and the paintjob. And thank you very much for sharing your color choice.
Thanks zapp, Love your work also. Pity you are my enemy lol! Actually, when I see your Yu Jing minis I get inspired to start a new army also. However I'm leaning towards begining an Ikari Company Army at the moment, just for something a bit different. :-)
INFINITY JSA: Heavy Infantry Thought I'd post this for a bit of fun. Heavy Infantry Konoe heavy infantry (& Tanko) in action! Side by side I can see how the unit markings and palette of each different troop type cohere as a whole army. This is what is key to painting good looking miniature armies: Balancing unity and difference at the same time. Pity I'm not such a great photographer as it was too hard for me to get both the foreground and background in focus at the same time.

INFINITY JSA: Ninja Very nice new sculpt of the Ninja, I only wish the other Ninjas were updated as it is sad not to have this iconic unit in a JSA army. Pity this model is so hard to get outside the Yu Jing Starter set. However although it's profile is a little underwhelming it is worth getting as it looks so cool and you just have to have a ninja if you are a JSA collector (sorry old Ninjas you won't be on my painting roster). I was most satisfied to see this model in proper JSA colours, rather than our enemy's. I followed the Studio Giraldez version pretty closely in terms of lighting as an exercise in light sourcing, which they are so good at. Tbh it was hard to improve upon perfection, so I did my best to emulate what they had done. More Pics: https://archangelelonginfinitythegame.blogspot.com/2019/01/infinity-jsa-ninja.html
You're the first to ever call me that. Thank you for the honor and may all your projects be as successful as this one.
Well True ninja ware Blue :) but this looks good to and got this red strip across the leg that is quite popular recently
INFINITY JSA: Yaokong AKA "Minikoma." These guys were not on a high priority for my army as the models are dated as well as Yu Jing hand me downs. That said they are quite cute really and have grown on me. Plus with a new lick of paint they turned out OK. I used magnets on the weapons so that I could build any of the 4 types of Yaokong. Blue paint scheme you say? The paint scheme was based on Ghost in the Shell SAC Tachikomas, which I have a bit of a soft spot for. The predominantly blue colour doesn't stand out too glaringly in the army over all as I have used blue, grey and red on nearly every model already quite deliberately so as to include these Minikomas in some shape or form. As to why they are blue fluff wise, I say that they are police issue REMs that have been requisitioned by the ever resourceful Ryuken Unit-9 due to the attrition of military issue REMs during the uprising. :-) YAOKONG Weibing (Combi Rifle, Sniffer) YAOKONG Husong (HMG) YAOKONG Son-bae (Smart Missile Launcher) YAOKONG Chaiyi (Flash Pulse, Sniffer) On Patrol with Ryuken Unit 9 More pics at: https://archangelelonginfinitythegame.blogspot.com/2019/01/infinity-jsa-yaokong.html
Nice to see how those looks like in blue. I asked for advices a few weeks ago as blue is my YJ scheme but I thought those would be "too blue" for me. Apparently I was wrong. I may end painting them pretty much like yours.
Who could have guessed blue rems would look so good. Thanks to you and few others logs, now I'm assembling my JSA. I took me almost a year to decide what to do with those filthy traitors but the models are just to great to resist.
