This was a very frustrating model to paint. The model looked great, I'm just not skilled enough to bring it to life the way I wanted to. I'm not down, it gives me more motivation to learn new skills and paint more! 

Skills I need to work on: edge highlighting, blending and working with black. As you can tell, my edge highlights need a lot of work. I tried to employ several techniques but they didn't come out great. My brushes were not co-operating with me and the paint kept getting everywhere. I need to work on brush control. I also need to work on paint consistency. It could be why the paint was getting everywhere.

I also need to work on the basing. I went back and forth between clean and dirty and couldn't figure it out. The urban theme is also something new for me. The base didn't come out as well as I would have liked, it's going to be another adjustment. 

Infinity is the new Wargame that our gaming group has decided to try out. With some of the factions taken, I settled on Yu Jing because who doesn't like space ninjas? I know that the Infinity painting style is different. It has a lot of edge highlighting and a lot of contrast. It's going be an adjustment for sure but thankfully I have a few YouTube channels I can watch for some inspiration. I hope I can get it done quickly.
