Dog Warriors

Mamamia!  Mamamia!  Mamamia let me go!
These are Dog Warriors who will proxy as my Irmadinhos.

... Until I paint the actual Irmadinhos models.

AAR: INFINITY: 300 points- Onyx vs. PanOceania: HS2N3- Rescue


Credit: PARK Jon Wong
With Human Sphere recently released, it was decided to give one of the new scenarios a try.

And it was time to try out Onyx!!!

Sadly, I hadn't painted up my new remotes, Unidron support weapons or even my second Umbra (there's a lot on the painting table!).  So in order to make the 300 point cap it was down to bringing the biggest model I could get...

... the Sphinx!

Ariadna: Cateran Sniper

T2 Cateran
Is there any other kind of Cateran Sniper?


I've had these annoying figures throw my plans into utter disarray but when I try and use them they've been simply mediocre.

They are fantastic killers in the active turn.  In reactive turn, they just get wasted....

AAR: Infinity: 300 points- MAF vs. Neoterra: N3- Frontline

Credit: PARK Jong Won

With HSN3 dropping soon, I decided to give the MAF one last hurrah.  It wasn't a tourney list- I just decided to use a few models I haven't touched for a long time.... *cough* Raicho *cough*

I'm really not a fan of bring TAGs- those of you who've followed my MAF batreps know this is far from my 'ideal' list- but this was for fun....

... what?!  We can play Infinity for fun?

To war!!!!

Uxia McNeill- Covert Action

Surprise!!!
I have it on good authority that this figure is the best ITS figure in Ariadna.

Superior infiltration, smoke, demolition charges and a shotgun makes her an excellent 'classifieds' go getter and a general pain in the backside.

I don't know why she has a divot in her forehead- likely a scar from all the times she's been head shotted for being so close to the enemy.

Caledonian Volunteer- Rifle

Is that a seed soldier?
Despite his odd looking pose- this figure isn't too bad.

I painted him with the Caledonian Volunteer whilst Braveheart was blaring in the background.  That was some motivation.

Caledonian Volunteer- Chain Rifle and Painting Tartan

They may take our lives but they'll never take our FREEDOM!
For 6 points- you get an order, a chain rifle and not much else.

Bargain!

Ariadna: Chasseur

Flamers ready!
I finished this Chasseur over the past two weeks.

He was an enjoyable model to paint and not so covered in detail to make it a chore to finish.  In keeping with his French origins I painted his pants and cap in Camouflage Europe Centrale- the camouflage pattern of the modern French army uniforms.

He's turned out very well for an old sculpt even if I do say so myself.

Ariadna: Spec-Ops

Sneaky peaky.
I have no idea why I did this miniature other than the fact he has been on my to do list for 100 days.  Yes- that's right- 100 days.  So when a competition turned up for painting a Spec-Ops model- I caved in and got it done.

To be honest, having the satisfaction of crossing him off my to do list is a fantastic feeling.

He's good for the table top and I can't wait to trot him out as a proxy for ... anything!   So versatile!

Ariadna: Tank Hunter Autocannon

AP + EXP ammo = best ammo.
After a brief hiatus spent away with real life- I return invigorated for more battles with tiny lead soldiers.

I have received many assurances that the Tank Hunter Autocannon is the go to TAG killer for Ariadna.  In fact, it seems to be the go to anything killer of anything with more than 1 wound.

Which ever it turns out to be- I can't wait to bring this figure onto the gaming table!
