Operation Coldfront: Line Kazak- Rifle 1

Left handers seem to shoot better than right handers.

As I make my slow way through the lead pile of Coldfront, I'm trying to speed up my painting techniques.

First rule... not everything gets edge highlights!

Scout- Boarding Shotgun

Something to keep those Bloodsuckers at bay.

The Scout from Operation Coldfront finished in preparation for the post- Satellite cool down.

BLUF: 4^th out of 16- sabotaged myself by not reading mission scoring.  One minor victory should have been a major and one minor victory WAS a major but not recorded as such (read how the bloody missions score before submitting forms!!) and my one loss could have been mitigated. 

My poor mission comprehension cost myself a podium spot.

Never again!

Oyoroi Pilot

I'm still mad at you... I'm not mad!

I painted this model as a Secret Santa gift for a member of my gaming club.  

HVT: Candy Double

Yellow

I don't know which one I dislike more- painting white or painting yellow!

Wardriver Hacker- Limited Edition

Her nickname is "The Eye of Sauron"

Somewhat unfortunately due to the odd lens effect on her face plate.

Maybe I should just stick to airbrushing tricky effects like that?

HVT: Marine Engineering Officer

Painting white...

Another HVT for Unmasking.

I hate painting white.

The reports are based on memory with the help of some photos gleaned from the Infinity Australia Facebook page.  There will be inconsistences (especially with the photos which were taken at different rounds of the tournament when terrain had been adjusted) that I hope I’ve been able to get around with some labeling.  Knowing how unreliable my memory is, I’ve tried to record it all as accurately as possible but don’t be surprised if some the details don’t add up- the report will really only give you a gist of what happened.

I don't work for ALEPH....

I had a tournament recently where I needed 3 HVTs for Unmasking. 

It was a really good opportunity to branch away from painting my usual drab USA and explore some other colour schemes.... and get through my lead pile!

Strategos Series: CanCon2018- Vignettes USARF

Failures that could have been avoided.

Review using philosophies already described previously.


Enemy vs Mission Concept In List Generation

- novel missions

- failed to appreciate the CONTEXTUAL element in the idea of fighting power
- not just the conceptual- i.e. USARF is good at cheap attrition
- not just the physical element- i.e. this model has this profile and is used in this way (CONTEXT changes it's use and thus its importance).
