Infinity Haqqislam Ahl Fassed

Hello everyone,

More adventures in miniature collecting and painting. This post is going to be about the Ahl Fassed from the Haqqislam faction of Infinity the Game.

To start with, this is an early mini from Infinity line. It was made in 2007 so it is one of the first in the faction. I really liked the character but it's pose is a little static which is common in the early days of the Game. One of the other odd things is that the mini is a female and it is easily mistaken for a male. Other than that, it's a great mini. The casting was smooth and the parts (there are two) went together easily.

Initially, I went with the studio colors for the color scheme. Personally, I really like the dark and light green color combo of the faction. However, I did end up changing a few things. The biggest change was the cable suit under the armor. The studio color was brown and I changed it to a dark blue/black with white highlights.

Here are the some of the colors that I used. Again, I use Vallejo Model Color most of the time.

Dark Green: 
Base Color: Luftwaffe Camo Green
Highlight 1: Golden Olive
Highlight 2: Sunny Skin Tone
Highlight 3: Sunny Skin Tone + Ivory
Shadow: Military Green

Light Green:
Base Color: Dead Flesh+ Luftwaffe Camo Green
Highlight 1: Dead Flesh (Vallejo Game Color)
Highlight 2: White
Shadow: Luftwaffe Camo Green
Tones: English Uniform

Gun:
Base color: Black + Dark Prussian Blue
Highlight: White
Tones: Prussian Blue

The Base:
Base Color: Orange Brown
Highlight 1: Dark Sand
Highlight 2: Ivory
     Pigments (Secret Weapon and MIG):
              (SW) Terra Cotta Earth
              (MIG) Iraq Sand
              (SW) Ancient Earth

Also, I did a little battle damage with this mini and I used pigment to dirty up the armor. I think that it came out quite good and I really liked the effect.

I used Dragon Forge Bases: Desert Wasteland to get the feel of the Haqqislam's home planet Bourak.

So here are some WIP photos and the Finished Piece. I hope you like.

Introductions All Around

Hello All! Welcome to Darklyte Productions

My name is Cullen Knappen and this is the first post of my blog. This blog is going to be about my adventures in miniature painting, art, and things in general that interest me.

The Darklyte Production part is an idea that has not taken form yet. I hope maybe that it might here on this blog. But we shall see...

At the moment I'm working on the Infinity range of miniatures because it is one of my favorites. I will be posting works in progress as well as finished paint jobs and also give a quick summary of my thoughts and feelings on the process from start to finish. I would also like to talk about the miniature painting hobby as well. I welcome any constructive comments or advice on what I am working on at any given time.

Just to let everyone know - I really do not play the games that the miniatures come from. I live in the country and there is not much gaming going on around here. I have to drive 40 miles to the nearest  game store.

At any rate, these are my first pics of the Infinity range that I started painting a few months ago.

This is the Haqqislam Lasiqs with a viral rifle.

This is one of the first minis I painted in 2012. Before this it had been a few years since the last time I painted at this level. So some of the blending needed a little work and I hate how the base turned out. I am not really happy with results but, hey it's a start. Also, this is before I got a Lighting Set-up so the Pics aren't as strong as I'd like.

Thanks for looking!
