In advance of making a new year's resolution or anything like that, I'm gonna be making more of a focus in making my backlog of minis 'table ready', rather than gunning for 'parade ready' and not quite getting there with my current skill level.
Which runs a little counter to posting them on social media perhaps - but then it's always nice to have a reminder that you can make cool-looking miniatures at a reasonable pace.
O-12, ready to persecute those nasty criminals and defend YOU from the Combined Army!
The courts have thrown out every single one of the 12 cases the president’s team has filed.
It is easy to think that what is happening in America this week is a purely constitutional crisis or some kind of a crisis of law itself. After all, Republicans in state legislatures and the Trump campaign are declining to concede that the election is over and that they lost; they are filing lawsuits around the country that are being bounced like superballs out of their various courtrooms; and they are turning on their own Secretaries of State as they make demonstrably false, empty claims about rampant election fraud. But it’s not in fact a crisis of law. The law is managing the lawsuits precisely as it ought to: Taking them seriously enough to reject them outright. As elections lawyer Marc Elias continues to tweet, 0-12 is a pretty sound legal outcome 9 days post-election.
Review: Raveneye Officer (2022)
Welcome to Infinity Review, a blog where I review new Infinity miniatures releases. I’ve been playing Infinity and collecting and painting the miniatures for about 10 years, and I love talking about them! I started this blog both to share my thoughts and encourage more discussion about this great miniatures line. iv’e been away for a few years, but now I’m back!
If you’re interested you can find my review criteria here.
Today I’m reviewing the new Raveneye Officer. This is an exclusive model that comes with the new Raveneye book, which is available for Preorder now. Please support the game and pick it up!
Raveneye Officer (0-12/Starmada) Sculpted by: ??? Painted by: ???
Design (8): I’ve been away from infinity for a few years, so I missed the chance to review the huge amount of 0-12 miniatures that were released in that time. I have kept up with the line though, and I’ve mostly liked what I’ve seen. The Raveneye Officer features a number of design elements common across 0-12. His uniform combines somewhat generic (but nice) looking plates on the shins and shoulders with a stylized uniform that looks like it would be at home on a futuristic naval vessel (from what I understand Raveneye is a space station, so that makes sense). Combined with the prominent helmet and backpack this creates a nice silhouette, and the model has plenty of eye catching details. The helmet is probably my favorite part. Its unconventional shape and prominent tubes are really neat. 0-12 is full of a lot of cool helmets, actually!
Sculpt (9): The Raveneye Officer is a busy model, with lots of details to draw the eye. Fortunately the sculpt is grounded by the relatively clean surfaces of the uniform, which gives details like the various belts, buckles, trim and holsters a chance to shine without overwhelming the eye. The back of the model is more cluttered, with a slung rifle (always something I love to see), a complicated backpack and wires feeding from the helmet. But because the Officer’s details flow cleanly from the front to the back and from the top to the bottom this mass of details seems less like clutter and more like purposeful density that gives the model weight and draws the focus of your eye to the front (and especially the hand and helmet). Well done!
Pose (8): There’s nothing particularly exciting about this pose. Like many Infinity models, the Raveneye Officer is posing in a fairly generic forward stride. Its not a standout pose, but it shows off the model nicely and will look good on the table in any context
Overall score: 8/10

This is the police
Something a little different, again.
