Customeeple Infinity terrain

I have finished up a batch of Customeeple buildings for an Infinity terrain commission. These buildings are all MDF and acrylic kits that capture the sci-fi style of Infinity well. There are a lot of flat surfaces and hard edges that lend themselves to extreme edge highlighting. I would not normally go this hard on the edge… Read More Customeeple Infinity terrain
