Warsenal Cosmica HAB Building

The Cosmica Colony is a fantastically detailed collection of modular terrain by Warsenal. The range consists of several frames with a variety of wall panels that can be swapped in and out as desired.

This building is their HAB Building, which bundles the Zeta Frame and Zeta Roof with the Airlock, Transfer Tunnel, Bunks and Observation Panel facades.

Then, using an airbrush, use straight GW Agrax Earthshade to dakren anbd dirty the white and orange sections.
To weather the black sections, airbrush a mic of VMC Orange Brown and Cavalry Brown.

Infinity - Yu Jing: Imperial Agent, Crane Rank

I painted this miniature for the winner of the monthly MayaCast Patreon raffle.




The colors were airbrushed, and then finished off with dark-lining and edge highlighting using the excellent Windsor & Newton Series 7 Round size 0 brush.

Blacks were done with Black, VMC Black Grey, Dark Grey, Neutral Grey, and Light Grey. Metals were further highlighted with White.

The Orange was based with VMC Orange Brown, shaded with Cavalry Brown and then Hull Red. Highlights were added with VGC Hot Orange <> VMC Light Orange <> Sunny Skintone <> Ivory.

Infinity - Steel Phalanx: Atalanta and Spotbot

Followers of this Blog will recognize the color scheme. Atalanta here starts a second batch of Aleph models for Infinity in this Purple and White color scheme.







The cool white of the bases start with white primer. This is shaded with the airbrush using VGC Wolf Grey, Ice Blue, and Turquoise. Highlights are reclaimed by airbrushing white before lining with Turquoise and edge highlighting with white.

Warsenal - Ord Buhkrep

This building by Warsenal is from their Thon: The Game line. Now, I don't know anything about Thon: The Game, but I do know that this range of 28mm sci-fi buildings is going to work perfectly as a Military Orders complex for Infinity: The Game.










If you're interested in how I painted it, I did a four-part tutorial on that very subject for the Warsenal Blog. Check it out:

Antenociti's Workshop Terrain - Sleepbox

Once again, I did not have the finishing decals which were added by Antenociti's after I had done the painting. Check out the new Sleepboxes!








The White Box was painted with VGC Sombre Grey, Wolf Grey, and White, with tones then added with Ice Blue.

The Orange Box was based with VMC Orange Brown 131, highlighted with Light Orange 022, VGC Gold Yellow <> VMC Ice Yellow 013. P3 Khador Red Base was used to add shadows.
