Thanks very much for feedback MAXXxxx very much appricated, and no I dont have that kind of control over the airbrush yet, these are my first try with one and therefore I didn't do more then the basic colours on the pan oceania.

I just recently read this article about good criticism and the way it help to become better as a painter. https://www.althaipaints.net/abalam-revisited/#comment-2823
I thought it would be appropriate to post it here when I have received so good comments.

btw the figures will hold the time schedule of 2 hours of painting. have finished the figures and only have the basing part left to fix. Will post pic when I have had time to finish the bases. Some other stuff that I need to take care of that is not painting related :)

Thanks again.

For the moment painting some infinity to play with, will soon start my first diorama. Looking forward to that. It will be called "perspektiv"

Will do a kind of step by step on that one. will be a simpler form of diorama and after that is done... if it gets done I have plans for a more difficult one.

Here is the result of some finished infinty figures, missing the bases the postal service has it somewhere :)

Have 2 more figures from the starter box to paint and two remotes. after that I guess i need some more figures but not sure how many or which ones. Difficult to buy figurers to a game when you haven't played it so much.

Boom looking cool dude, I like the over all effect, especially on the 2 robo guys at the back. maybe its the extra shadow on the minis or you have done a little more shading on them just makes em pop a touch more.

Nice looking group Kretcher. My favorite is the guy in the center, love the head/helmet. Good luck on learning the airbrush. It's on my long list of things to try one day.

Canny I agree with you, will touch up the shadows a bit, the pictures ar crappy thou and they are quite dark now. But the darkest recesses and the areas where focus shouldn't be will get some darker shadows.
Khavor, I agree when I started to make the helmet with "Orange" they turned out better. Airbrush is fun to try and a good tool. But it feels like starting all over again. a total new kind of skill set and way to paint. new techniques and so on. As people say paint, paint and then paint some more to learn :)

Thanks all :)

Currently finished a Tau that is going back to the customer to look at in real life and quality is a little bit over tabletop (sorry for dark pic, I messed up with the light set up)

I am also working on a "personal" challenge from a friend that gave me a kingdom death figure. I have to use a lot of "freehand" on the figure. I have tested some techniques and found one that I want to use. This is a base that i have played around a little bit with. Now I need to practice a specific pattern that I want too use.

Have placed the figure on the base and started to put down some base color on him. Also put some fast colors into the base. Since this is a figure to practice on I dont give to much thoughts about some things and just do as i feel and hope for the best.

Right now there is a lot of colours ongoing and no plan on how to tie it all together :) time will tell if it works or not.
