NEVER seen those old figs before.  :o

Not the easiest choice to make - two very different painting styles, and very different mini styles, too.

Great work on both entries! I think the padding of the first entry overwhelms the actual group picture a bit, which is a shame. I really like the atmospheric second entry as well, great work and a nice background!

I like the Arasaka.  Good clean lines.  The simple basing scheme seems to really work here too.

I love the rolling fog look.  Gotta love cotton!  Solid painting.

Looking at both of these, I'm coming around to the simple basing.  Maybe I should start just painting mine...

Good job both!

I always have only painted my bases. Especially the integral ones.
I loved the Arasaka entry! Don't understand the pading overwhelming the figs quote above tho.?

Ah, with the padding I meant the logo's, title and black bars. I guess it's too much distraction for me personally. The paintjobs on those Infinity models do look very neat and clean!

Yep, the padding is too big. Perhpas, it may deserve the paint...
The next one will be completely different style ...(if I could manage to finish it on time).

Uncle Mike, I like the fog and the background, very cartoon style !
