First of its kind


Well, here's a new kind of miniatures for me.  These are Mercs Miniatures.  I could not tell you the faction, or even what this guy is. :-)


I had done a lot of work on these guys during the White Scars project, and when the snow bases were being made.  I developed a few ways of approaching white, since that is a video I want to make in the future.  

I get asked about white and black so often, I knew I was going to have to get to those.


This particular white is very different from the recent White Scars white, since the snow would influence the overall mini in the same way that the bike bases did.  I needed a warmer white, but not anything yellowish.  The White Scars could have a more neutral/cool white, since the bases were a warmer color (and all the red/yellow markings).

  1. Wow these look great! Are they from the Infinity figure set? Might have to try and make an excuse to proxy them in some rule system.

  2. For those who are interested: This is the Behemoth, a member of the CKana Squat, which is a group of mercenaries working for the USCR megacon. In the game "Mercs" (not Infinity) they are the russian faction. Pretty interesting game...

    1. Thanks! It definitely sets the tone for them, doesn't it? :-)
