Now I have updated my blog with some pictures of my Sturmpionieren and a few words about what I like/dislike about them.

And don't forget to vote for what you think about the models (not the painting).

Thanks Thomas! I totally missed it.
You do? Great! Do you know how the Dust Tactics/Warfare scen is here?

Thomas Nissvik09 Jan 2014 6:03 a.m. PST

Nope. I have both Tactics and Warfare and I want to play, my buddy Laffe in Uppsala have som stuff but we never seem to get a game arranged. We are to busy doing regular WW2. If someoen else were to run a game, on the other hand…*hint, hint*

Liebermuster camo is a good call, especially for 1946 or beyond.

For the bases, I have several different suggestions: One option is to rebase them on thin clear acrylic, so that they match whatever they're standing on. Gotta be careful, though, since acrylic is pretty soft as plastics go and scratches easily.

The other choice is to base them using the existing bases, which leads to the impertinent question: Where are your troops?

I base all my Infinity figures with an urban theme. A thin smear of Vallejo black lava or red oxide gel, then prime (because it's easy to clean up if you got any gel on the mini). Paint using P3 Cryx Bane Base, a muddy wash and an oily wash, drybrush with Cryx Bane Base, and then a light drybrush of Vallejo Stone Grey. The last step I do is to paint the back 180 of the base with P3 Coal Black.

Lion of the Star: Thanks! I have never thought about clear acrylic, maybe I should give it a try. I wonder where I can buy that.

Thomas: Send me a mail bjorn_floderus at yahoo punkt se and we can maybe arrange something.

Hi Björn
Email has been sent.
As to bases, have a look at warbases.co.uk
They can do bases and they can do acrylic markers. Combining the two should not be a problem.
