Infinity Aleph Steel Phalanx army painted in Gold TMM ready to rumble!

It`s been a while since I posted some hobby stuff but I haven`t been lazy. A new Infinity the game army have come into my possession: The Assault Subsection, more commonly known as the Myrmidon Army or “the Steel Phalanx of ALEPH”, was created by the AI as a response to the unstoppable menace of the Combined Army. Commanded by Achilles and forged in the crucible of war, the Steel Phalanx is an unyielding force worthy of the Trojan War’s epic poems. It is a shock force with a focus on brutal direct assaults, and the chief weapon of ALEPH in its personal feud against its fearsome alien counterpart, the EI.

I love Greek mythology and it`s ancient heroes. In my youth, I`ve read about the myths of the heroes of the Trojan War and of Homer's epic poems, the Iliad and the Odyssey. I imagined these ancient Greek warriors as a bright, idealistic and heroic force. That made me very exciting painting and playing the Steel Phalanx of Aleph. What`s even cooler than these ancient heroes? Very simple: the ancient superheroes revived by an artificial intelligence to fight the Combined Army, an alien force attacking the human sphere!

In my mind, these heroes wore bright shiny gold armour and I always wanted to try Gold TMM for a Sci-Fi army. Therefore I went with a TMM Gold and Silver colour scheme and took new directions. I looked for good metallic colours and found the best: The Metal`n`Alchemy Range from Scale75. I really love these colours!

Enough talk, now let`s get to the meat and potatoes, the pics of the golden army of ALEPH: The Steel Phalanx.

My Top 10 miniature painting artists!

In this article, I would like to share with you, my 10 favorite miniature painters. Since ages, I am following the work of various amazing artists all over the world and draw so much inspiration from them! It is a beauty how the painting community grows together through the internet and everybody has the chance to look over the shoulders of those incredibly talented individuals.

The Sylvaneth of the Cherry Blossom Grove

  The Sylvaneth of the Cherry Blossom Grove is marching to war. I recently finished 3 trees (Treeman Ancient, ordinary Treeman, and the Spirit of Durthu) for the army and now the force is nearly finished. The foundation of the Cherry Blossom Grove lies in the Old Days of Warhammer where the majority of the army consisted of Wood Elves ( Link to an old blog article from 2014 ). Since then a lot of new miniatures have been painted and added to the army and I still plan to extend the Cherry Blossom Grove further in the next couple of months and years. Painting Alarielle of course and some more Kurnoth Hunters and even thinking about a Living City detachment of the Cities of Sigmar battletome. The Sylvaneth treemen of the Cherry Blossom Grove: I converted them a little bit by extending their legs for 1-2 inches to make them taller and put some branches of the old Citadel Forest on their shoulders and backs to make them bigger.

Starting a Tyranid army: Colorscheme

I've been a miniature hobbyist for over 10 years and have played a lot of different games (Warhammer Fantasy, Infinity, Frostgrave, Malifaux, Kings of War, etc.) but still hunger for more. In my gaming group, my friends convinced me to take a look at the Warhammer 40k lore. After reading a dozen books (Horus Heresy!) and pretty much got sucked into the crazy 40k lore, I decided to get into Warhammer 40.000.  As for my first 40k army choice, I was torn between the Childs of Slaanesh and Tyranids. Really love both design and lore of these 2 armies. Finally, I went with Tyranids because they are easy to paint and I wanted to get more into the lore before heavily converting some Slaanesh forces. Also, there are some stunning non-GW Tyranid designs out there (check out this Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/artbyhalfpint/ ) and I was very curious how these models would turn out. To say it upfront: These 3D printed resin miniatures have some amazing details and very high quali
