Infinity Aleph Penthesilea

Some time ago I decided to paint a series of miniatures — each as a gift for somebody who influenced my hobby a lot. So this is second miniature in "Exclusive Gifts" project. Each gift includes a mini, a 'vignette' (small terrain piece for it), and backgroung for the mini (partly official, partly written by me as fanfiction) on a pack of small stylized cards. And everything comes in a custom gift-box, so when you open it your jaw is meant to drop. Here is Exclusive Gift #2 for Denis Darvish, a friend who always supported my crazy hobby ideas, helped me start a multiplayer Infinity campaign of my creation, and was always willing to spend time and money on hobby, just like me :) - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Exclusive Gift #2 Penny From the start of the project I wanted to play with Penthesilea's monofilament (monomolecular) blade — that meant slicing something apart. First ideas were: street lamp, billboard and Keisotsu. OK, Keisotsu out, street lamp and billboard are good enough :) Penthiselea is official Aleph character, and background for her is already written by Gutier Lusquiños, author of Infinity fluff. Still, I wanted to create a story for this vignette. A story that would make Penthiselea not just some distant character fighting EI on Aleph's side. A story that would tell small details and tie Penny into intrigues and covert operations of Infinity universe. That led to Bakunin's playdroid manufacturing company, illegal cargo transfer on Haqqislamite corsair ship, and rouge Exrah smuggler called Obershmukler... I won't bother you with the story here, so if you're stubborn enough to read it, just send me a message on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/d.a.bogdanov).
