Ariadna Tournament Preparation: Cordelia

I've had the Scarface and Cordelia set for a good few months now, and Scarface got painted up fairly early on. Poor Cordelia however has been sat in primer the whole time... so I decided to end my Infinity painting block and get her done.

I think she came out alright for an impromptu four-hour painting session last night. Still need to base it but aside from a slightly derpy facial expression I'm pretty happy with her.

No prizes for guessing what Ariadna have hired to accompany them to the tournament on Saturday? Scarface and Cordelia, or an Irmandinho and Vet Kazak HMG?

Scarface = MVP

I had a chance to break out Ariadna for a couple of games today, and I decided to use Scarface and Cordelia. Previous to this the only use of Scarface had been in a painful doubles game that drove me into the arms of 40k for a couple of weeks as a result (yes, really...). So today was my opportunity to actually try him out properly for the first time since I'd finished painting him.

And I wasn't disappointed!

The World Is Yours: Scarface

With a week off work, I decided to dedicate my time to finishing off some Infinity models. Unfortunately I actually only managed to get one done in that whole time. But at least it's TAG sized! Scarface (minus Cordelia).

The green is airbrushed for a gradient effect, same with the grey on the legs and knife and guns. Everything else is by hand. I used oil washes for the first time on this model and they worked really well, so much so I'm going to paint my Steel Phalanx using this technique.

Progress On My First TAG: Scarface

My reward for getting through the first 200pts worth of models, was buying myself Scarface and Cordelia. Once I'd completed 300pts then I got to paint it as a treat! Oh how a modern day wargamer needs weird motivational goals to keep painting!

Anyway here he is so far:

Green done (not that you can tell), masked off with Silly Putty ready for the grey bits. As they're quite large and flat areas (relatively) I decided to airbrush them to give them a gradient rather than just edge highlight.

More soon.
