Hopefully in the USAriada release, we get a character like this:

Spoiler:

Call him Doc Howliday

Totally unrealistic. An autocannon AND a Panzerfaust? Come on, now...

Just popped in to get some inspiration for my Bao Police men but that needed an lol!

(Thinking of a Total Recall type police colour scheme for my Bao's!)

**Pacific**

And keeping this theme going, think this game is really missing some appropriate vehicle and TAG crews!

**Casey's Law**

Oh goodness, Pacific! Now I need to boil my eyes in bleach...

**CDK**

Nomads. Definitely Nomads.

Here's a few more from my favorites. Another mech for Pacific too!

Slightly off-topic, but did you know that piece of art is now a miniature?

Well, that took the wind out of Defiance pretty quickly. Mind if I reshare in that thread?

**ShatteredBlade**

For some reason this always makes me want to play Ariadna

Same with this one

**kestril**

I can't decide which unit that would be.

**Kanluwen**

Why it's Senor Massacre on his day off, of course!

**Pacific**

Dreadclaw69..

I would so like that miniature to be a terrain piece for the Mercenary base I'm building.... what kind of scale is it?

Although, the price - ouch! This is the kind of thing that would take a late night post-pub moment of weakness, and of course not being able to cancel the next day

**kestril**

Because I like Ariadna:

I'd love to see a model that's a shout-out to snake from the Metal Gear Solid franchise.

Of course, the MGS franchise has it's fair share of cyborg-ninjas

And cool mechs:

Given it's supposed to be a 1/35 scale model, the scale reference puts it at roughly 100 mm tall.

That wouldn't stop it being as a 28/32mm scale mech though - it'd just be a pretty big-ass one.

I'm sure you could use it as some sort of boss for a campaign climax

**kestril**

Come to think of it, I saw that model the last time my infinity group got together, and we were discussing it to be used as a final boss.

. . . I'm lucky to have such a great group.

**Dreadclaw69**

How big is your group, and would they all consider chipping in for it? The site says its 110BGP, but it does have free worldwide shipping I believe.

About 7-ish people, give or take a few. A few of which spend way too much time on terrain and infinity in general.

But I haven't seen them in a while, so I don't know who'd be willing to chip in. I'm the "poor"/ new player of the group, unfortunately, so I can spare no quarter.

Old Snake on the left =)

And here's grey fox =P

**kestril**

Haha! You're right! Now I have to start haqqislam now.

Or just get that model and proxy it as a chasseur or ranger something. It would fit right in, given the right paintjob.

**Kanluwen**

Pft, don't forget the other Snake...

**Pacific**

Ah yes I love that Ghulam! Slightly more obvious reference than the two characters from Lost in the Pan O force

Ah here we go.. I really should have had a look at the website..

So... might possibly work! I wasn't thinking of using it in games (although there is a great 'destroy the tank' mission that could probably be adapted), but just having it parked up as a terrain piece.

Alex Iglesias' amazing mech design "The Fiddler" has finally been translated to resin model form! Standing 150mm tall and consisting of 91 resin and brass pieces, the Fiddler kit is pose-able and perfect for dioramas and "dynamic" modelling. This is a high quality resin model kit and includes 7 pre-cut brass rods for the weapons barrels. The Fiddler kit is 1/35 scale. It is suitable for 28mm scale miniatures as a heavy mech, or 54mm as a light mech, corresponding to the scale from the original Alex Iglesias artwork. This is a truly collaborative project, featuring the talents of the following people:

**Von Skyfury**

So true
Don't forget to add a silencer on his pistol =)

**Kanluwen**

Pacific--one of the regulars on the Infinity forum is running a "boss battle" mission at GenCon.

I'm sure if you ask nicely he would share it.

**Pacific**

OK cheers mate I will take a look!

Been playing a few different special scenarios that people have made on the Infinity boards recently actually, there are some quite cool ones there.

**CDK**

How would you like to play in this setting?

**Pacific**

Wow....

Although not enough Korean on there! Everyone knows that in the future every logo will have some Korean on it somewhere as the Asian language of choice, according to every sci-fi made in 2012 onwards

**Casey's Law**

Very nice find!

**Pacific**

Just been looking through this old thread again - I hope no-one minds me resurrecting it and adding a few more pics. Some really good stuff in here!

They do. Old snake (eyepatch) at least is a ghulam from the old Haqq starter. 2nd from right.
