Great models and paintjob FB! You did white very well here!
Are those containers made from paper or are they actual models?

Thanks Andy! I wasn't originally planning to enter any Infinity stuff in the league, but when some 15mm stuff didn't arrive in time I had to improvise and do a "painting frenzy". :)
Those are actually paper models from Toposolitario. He has some great Infinity themed paper terrain on his site. The cool thing with these containers is that you can fold them flat again once you're done gaming.

Yes, I don't have the cuteness factor in my entry, and it might cost me. Grr... should have painted some Nomads instead!  ;)

Love the oldskool style and the little bots in the first entry, then again the painting of the second one looks really nice as well with the backgroudn adding atmosphere to it... difficult.

Indeed two very nice entries and rather tightly matched. I think FB!'s models have the better paint jobs though so that's where my vote went.

lol  Cuteness is really all I've got going for me!  Those are beautifully painted.  I was surprised earlier when I voted and found I was ahead.  I think the votes deserve to be going your way and I'm happy that they are (at this point at least!).  Voters are a fickle bunch though...  :)

You're lucky though.  I have another 3 Tool Bots half painted which I wasn't able to finish in time.  If there were 6 of them you would be overwhelmed in a wave of cuteness...   :D

Hehe! Yes, six of them would just be sheer brute cuteness!  lol

They're really cool minis, especially seeing them together like this. I think you've made my wallet a bit thinner.
