My first ever infiNity model

So after a European holiday that came a day after receiving my shipment of infiNity models, I finally got round to actually painting one of them. The assembly process on my first 200pts of Ariadna was... interesting. No, when I say 'interesting' what I mean is actually 'stressful'.

My first painted model was simply the last one I completed assembly, a Caledonian Mormaer.



 
I've christened him Robert 'Robbie' Bontine Cunningham of Craikend, probably Lieutenant for my Ariadnan 32nd Advanced Special Operations Group. 

Since getting back into the hobby eight months ago, I've morphed into using an airbrush on 90% of my models simply out of laziness and to speed up blending and shading that I otherwise fail miserably at. So due to size and the varied colours, this guy was merely undercoated black with one, and everything else was by hand with a brush. Overall I'm very pleased. Possibly a tiny bit cartoony but coming from 40k that's a style I both welcome and will find need to adjust to appreciating on my own models.

The base was done using a Kromlech Urban Rubble basing kit, of which I'll do a little review later.
