Now I started with Infinity, I've decided to post proof that, no, I don't really concentrate on any one army and do, in fact, juggle many projects at the same time Here's the very start of my PanOceania army, which I dubbed the Strategic Security Division Strike Team, inspired by my first model, a Hexas Sniper:





(Photos linked from my Facebook account, so I do not know if everyone can see them. Let me know!)

And in the words of the site:

The Strategic Security Division is the PanOceanian agency for foreign intelligence. It works under direct orders from the Hexaedron, the Military High Command and Intelligence or PanOceania, and the immediate executor or its directives and orders. The Division's mission, as Reflected in its member's designation-key hexas "is to Maintain the status quo and international strategic situation of the Human Sphere.
(...)
Nevertheless, what sets the hexas separately from other special operations agents is Their moral integrity. These guys are printable to operate with total freedom, without any restrictions. They are intelligence agents without bounds, basically pro war criminals with better technology.

I found the model quite cool, so I changed little; tweaked her MULTI Sniper Rifle and put it on a bipod.

This really is the smallest model to date that I have worked with, literally speaking, including the Human models by GW. I still think I'm not that great a painter, so I'm doubting whether or not I'll just try with this girl or, because it is so much smaller than I've ever painted, try and find someone else for the painting.

So, you decided to begin with the most evil troop in PanOceania. The darkest side of the most powerful faction.
Nothing to do with the lightful happy freedom fighters from Acontecimento.

Does that describe your army theme? are you going to make an evil dark PanOceana theme?
Are you an evil player?


Great subtle touch with the conversion, love it.

Yeah, it is hard for peopel to understand until they have an Infinity model in hand that the models are very realistically per-portioned and at 28mm that makes for a "small" model. The amount of deal they get into these things at that size is crazy.

The rifle looks great. Nice simple change.

I think the key to painting the figs is to thin down your paints. if you have to paint the same color three times then fine. But then you will have no loss of detail.

Interesting questions, ser. I will indeed be aiming for a dark army, literally and figuratively speaking. As for me myself, I suppose I am. All of the characters I roleplay have a dark streak, at the very least, and my armies as well

Thanks Just felt natural and makes it more like my favorite long distance rifle, the M82A3 rifle.

No gak. For such a small model, the detail is indeed amazing!

In all the years I've painted, I've never thinned my paints. No, really Maybe it's time to start...

But in all those years how many of them had this same level of detail?

Heh, you got me. None, I think. My Warsmith model for my CSM Iron Warriors is closest, I think.

Washes particularly work great too.

Yeah, I defenitly hope to 'cheat' with those

Ha it's not cheating if it looks good!

Heh, fair point. I cheat all the time (with paint) when I make props

Can't... see... models... Blocked on my work computer, going to have to wait till later to see them I guess.

I'll be here, waiting And for now it's multiple photo's of a single model

She looks great, dude! Looking forward to seeing her painted.

As am I I hope to make some time coming monday for miniature related shenannigans, including probably-hopefully painting her.

For completeness sake, even though I posted it elsewhere on DakkaDakka, the fluff for this force:

Grigori Mandate, Strategic Security Division, New Dawn Company, Strike Team.

The Strategic Security Division is the PanOceanian agency for foreign intelligence. It works under direct orders from the Hexaedron, the Military and Intelligence High Command of PanOceania, and the immediate executor of its directives and orders. The Division’s mission is to maintain the international status quo and strategic situation of the Human Sphere.

Their goal is to maintain PanOceanian control in hostile operations outside national territory. The Hexas conduct covert paramilitary operations, destabilization missions, training of rebel troops, key target abductions, interrogation sessions, and ‘termination of targets with extreme prejudice’; the classic catalogue. What sets the Hexas apart from other special operations agents is their moral integrity, or rather, lack thereof. They are Intelligence agents without bounds, basically professional war criminals with better technology. Judging from what little that can be drawn from their records, even the PanOceanian military loathes them.

That there is a part of the Division that is said to operate under something known as the "Grigori Mandate", is the 'fault' of a certain Marshal Grigori Faust, of the Hexaedron. For whatever reason, he sees wresting as much of Dawn out of Ariadna control as he can manage as his own personal vendetta. Diverting resources from the main Strategic Security Division, he created a new group of soldiers, aptly and evocatively named the New Dawn Company, further divided into Strike Teams.

Logically and logistically, the New Dawn Company can't get the full support of the PanOceanian military. The core of every Strike Team, then, is one or two Hexas, sometimes even supported by ALEPH's Deva functionaries if the situation warrants it. This core proceeds to find suitable rebel elements on Dawn, who are then trained in remote locales to the operational level of Fusiliers and in rare ocasions, with gifted individuals, beyond.

Any resemblance to the fluff of my Imperial Guard army is a coincedence

How about make a small force to post here from which you base it on?

What do you mean? The list I'll use?

Right. A sample. Use the Infinity army builder. They have button for copying it for forums.

http://infinitythegame.com/dt_army/

Ah, I know about that one - I've already been using it Army is as follows:

NEOTERRAN CAPITALINE ARMY
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

GROUP 1 (Regs: 8):

HEXA MULTI Sniper Rifle / Pistol, Electric Pulse (38 | 1.5)

DEVA Lieutenant Combi Rifle, Nanopulser+Devabot / Pistol, Knife (26)
DEVABOT Heavy Flamethrower / Electric Pulse

TRAUMA-DOC Combi Rifle / Pistol, Knife (14)

FUSILIER HMG HMG / Pistol, Knife (19 | 1)

FUSILIER Hacker Combi Rifle / Pistol, Knife (22 | 0.5)

3x FUSILIER Combi Rifle / Pistol, Knife (10)


149 Points | SWC: 3

ARMY CODE: eNozMlE1VjNSM6yxUDMFkoYWagZACigAhHmpVm6hwZ4+nq5BCh6+7kBRU7CcASoJABMcD8U=

The Trauma-Doc and Fusiliers would be the "rebel elements" the fluff speaks of

I didn't know a Deva could be a Lt.! Must be only for them. Hmm makes you wonder just who they are working for

You wonder about that? Good, keep it that way And, yeah, they can be. Suits me just fine

The basic Hexas with combi looks good adn cheap with the TO camo. I'd take the max of them. Not in this list but in higher pts.

As it happens, I pretty much finished the 300 pts list. But that'll be the Interdiction Team
