Blood, dust and grime..

 The Dusk Wolves are pretty much ready for the dirt and grime layers. I finished up most of the details and cleared them, I also got the shoulder symbols on so I can scar them up as well.
 So far they are only cleared and the first coat of light black wash. Next it's going to be a thicker mix of Raw Umber to give them that really grimey look which my Dusk Wolves rock. Their armor is looking very stark white to me right now haha.. I'm use to it looking so dirty.
 I'll probably add on the base textures tonight and let them dry, but it really depends on how much time I have to do what and this weekend is already starting to look busy so I guess we'll see how it goes.
 I'm really all over the place here of late, I want to work on the Wraithknight but also have the urge to get some Dusk Wolf Vehicles done as well. So so all over the place haha
It's such a random selection I grabbed, most of them are heavy weapon guys and one being a Heavy Bolter guy. I really doubt he'll see much table time but hey, looks BA like Blain in Predator,,  I ain't got time bleed.. just F stuff up with this mini gun... ok I added the second part but you know what I mean. That much lead pumping out of a gun has to be brutal..

I'm really wanting to paint another Land Speeder but in debate as to what colors to go with. Really should throw together a Dark Angel one but painting black is so boring to me.. I really need to come up with a look I like so I can knock out some of the DA Bikes I have .. even if they have a rough time of it.

Bravo two watch our six

 Last night I finally got around to applying the black wash to the Infinity models, The oil wash is the way to go for the size and detail of the Infinity models, there's a lot of detail on the models and it makes it an easy affair to get in there and shade. Right now I haven't done any highlighting or detailing so its just the base colors and wash. I'll be adding highlights next and I still need to apply some texture paint to the bases of most of them. But they are coming along and looking pretty cool, so far I'm pretty happy with the color scheme but I may add a lighter blue to the Aleph models or maybe even some white. Sadly I misplaced the back shot of the Aeph peeps, I think I may have deleted the wrong picture haha..
 The Mercs are also almost done. I'll have to go in and detail them as well but closer. I now have a pretty good idea of the colors for both part which is what I wanted to figure out before I started on the chick on the bike. Once I get all of these done I'll start on the bike and that will be all of the Infinity models I have haha, I think I'm going to pick up a box with the Netrods in it for more orders, down the road though. So far I've only played the game once  8)

A long process...

 The congo line continues, last night I worked a little longer on the Dusk Wolves trying to get them all ready for the oil wash. I was hoping to have them completely ready but started to feel a bit rough.
I got the leather mostly done but didn't get to finish the details on the right red arm.
I need to finish up the details on these guys and then I'm going to clear them along with the Infinity models. Don't see myself getting anything done tonight with the way I'm feeling but hopeful it won't take too much longer to get ready for the wash.
