Tech Bees Bootleg done (nearly)

   Well the Tech Bees model is mostly done. There is still some highlighting to do and basing to do. The face was hard to do as I kept messing the eyes up and so have had to leave it. The skin was layered done and I am pretty happy with it. Now the model itself is very nice and as my first infinity model I do like it. I was surprised with the detail in the model and that it survived my attentions. Although I now remember how easily metal models chip and lose paint.
  I may invest in some in the future once my purchasing ban comes to an end, however I have one house move and a job relocation to come so the hobby may take a back seat soon, Haqqislam looks cool.  Anywhoo here are the pictures:

My First Infinity - Tech Bees WiP 2

Just a short post today. With the main Mech done all attention turned to the technician. With the base colours done I have turned to trying to get some details done. I ran a stripe down her leg ME style with blue holdups and a blue top. The leather was done in a traditional colour with her mechanical arm support in metal.

    This is the look I was going for. The above is stolen from Black milk clothing in Australia. But in blue!

I am missing a few paints so the highlight on the blue will have to wait for a bit and i wish i had done the white in bone first instead of a strong white. Next up are the skin highlights and the whole head area so she does not look like she is squinting so badly. However these just arrived from the Kickstarter so I must try and focus!

It's a million to one but I will finish one project before starting this!

My First Infinity - Tech Bees WiP

   This is my first Infinity model, I love the models but nobody plays this around me so I have yet to invest in any but a couple of the Bootleg models. The details on it are nice, the mechanical arm on mine has sheared off but is recoverable so I will put it back later.  

This is what it should look like

   I started off with the idea of doing it Mass Effect style with the stripe down the right arm. 

   So a base layer of grey and metallic silver for the mechanical parts. This was washed with a couple of black washes to darken it as it was a bit light for my liking. Then I took no more photos till I was done with the Mech.

   Some random wear on the Mech with blue lighting and the red stripe.I dry brushed the mech with lighter shades on grey to give it some relief and a gritty look. I think the Internals could do with a bit more colour and variation to the silver. 

   And so onto the maintenance worker, I am an engineer and none of my technicians look like this and I don't know where to start on the health and safety issues, she needs to stand out and so I am going to my usual blue and white. So all the base coats are done on her and requires washing with later highlights. Hopefully this will get done today.
