Just one year ago I started painting up some Ariadnians inspired by our own National Defense Force. Here are my Foxtrots (when playing vanilla) or Chasseurs (in sectorial MRRF) The far right proxies a Para-Commando FO.

Very cool!
The look straight out from "The Unit".

These are looking good. I take it the non-CB models are Hasslefree modern troopers? They scale pretty well with the CB models. If you need any more foxtrots this guy http://www.hfminis.co.uk/shop?product=w ... n-troopers makes a perfect rifle/ BS model. And his head should be available separately to use on any of the other modern troopers.

Thanks everyone for a warm welcome. I wasn't happy with my first photos, so decided to rebuild a lightbox and reshoot some minis.
@medusa: Yes, 3 Foxtrots out of 4 were made from Hasslefree Modern Troopers miniatures. A year ago HFminis hadn't heads with soft hats, so I used USMC heads from Empress Miniatures Modern Combat collection. That one, kneeling Foxtrot, is very new at HFminis and, naturaly, it is on my wishlist.
Mr.Chasseur and a pair of Para-Commandos:
Doser-Engineer (still waits for some touches here and there) with a tractor MUL:
Sometimes tractor is just a luggage tractor (a missile launcher system is magnetized):
Hacker (proxies Alguacil Hacker) with a yellow container (objective marker):

Hasselfree and Corvus Belli blend pretty well
Very nice!

The new 3D sculpts my depart a little from the HF ones but for the most part they do blend very well and your paint job helps allot.
Love the Tractor Mul looks like a real piece of insitu military hardware.

Sweet Anaconda! Where'd you source the gun?

@Section9: The spitfire was borrowed from a Gundam Zaku Warrior (1/144 scale).

Great work and Merry Christmas to you as well!
Exact work upon the Anaconda, where you show that this figure is at its best with a gritty look in a gritty contest, and good choice in swapping the head. Unfortunately, for me, this TAG was faulty since the beginning, because of the sword.
In any case, I like everything you did, and I also appreciate Hasslefree realistic weapons over most of the Infinity ones.

Loving that beam rifle! Was that gun from a 1/144 scaled gunpla kit?

Awesome job, I love the desert-style Ariadna. One idea: the bare tractor looks very empty (IIRC it was supposed to have the central camera but no missiles), how about magnetizing a crate to put in the missile mount instead?
@Claudius Sol: You are absolutely correct - it was borrowed from a Gundam Zaku Warrior (1/144 scale).
@Pierzasty: Great idea! Although missiles can be removed from the turret and look like this:
...or an alternative solution - quick snap of Dreamforge's bits:
Which one looks better? Everyone's opinion is appreciated.

I like the Dreamforge one on the right more. Looks quite "no frills" modern military to me - which I'm a big fan of.

I second the Dreamforge bits [edit]on the right[/edit] for the plain baggagebot.
The 'official' version looks a bit wonky without the missiles, IMO.

+1 for Dreamforgebits from my side aswell.
Would take the left thought. It looks more sturdy and robust, made to resist, if you catch my drive. The one on the right side looks so fragile...

@Claudius Sol, @Section9, @H1ghlander, @Hydra: Dreamforge bits it is!
I will probably assemble and paint both of the variants in different camo for variety.

Those are stunning!
I have been thinking of bulking out my USAriadna forces with some Hasslefree minis. It looks like they would work well, going by your display of awesome.
Can you go over your camo technique? Is that all brushwork, or are you using any kind of sponging?

Well done! And keep sharing!

STOP shooting the painted ones!
@Crushar, @ski2060: Thank you for the support! As for the camouflage, it is completely by hand and done in brushwork, although sponge sounds quite interesting and might be useful for some camo patterns.

really nice scheme and executed perfectly... i am really looking forward to my hasslefree miniatures to arrive.
Chaos isn't a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, but they refuse. They cling to the realm or the gods or love. Illusions. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.
