Infinity Aleph Army - showcase


Jist a quick post to drop photos of my burgeoning Aleph army for Infinity. It's still a work in progress force, but these are the finished models so far. I've especially enjoyed working on the remotes (robots) for them- some great designs and they also feel very distinct compared to most of the warhammer type stuff I've painted recently. 

I've had these for a number of years, and this was a project almost a decade in the making
 I had a stuttering start on Aleph a number of years ago, but I wasn't happy with the paint scheme and lost momentum on the project. Compared to the official scheme, I've introduced more yellow and gold style non metallic models. 

Speaking of the non metallic metals, it is quite a basic recipe for the gold/yellow - basically, baler brown with Skeleton Horde contrast on it. Then highlighted up with demonic yellow (army painter) and then mixing more white in before finally adding the pure white highlights. It works great on the smaller areas, but I probably need more practice for the bigger areas!

  1. These look really great! The addition of more yellow / gold contrasts nicely with the purple spot colour. I really like the subtle weathering / battle damage on the Garuda!

  2. Thanks - I can't take all credit for the weathering as I got the idea from the official model. I like Aleph to look very clean as it helps them appear synthetic and high-tech, but the wings are part of the jet pack and just seem like the kind of thing that would quickly get seared by the heat! - I like the Garuda a lot too - great model!
