Van Zant. Inspired by Matthew McConaughey's character from "Reign of Fire." This bad dude can parachute into your opponent's deployment zone table edge and start murdering dudes from behind.
This model is a limited edition Con Exclusive from GenCon last week. A version with pistol and axe arms (same body) will be available later in the year.
He is mounted on one of Warsenal's new Comanche bases.
The flesh on all of the USAriadna models was painted with VMC Cork Brown 133 <> Basic Skintone 017 <> Light Flesh 006, then glazed carefully here and there with Orange Brown 131 and Cavalry Brown 137 to add tones. Lining and final shadows were applied with Chocolate Brown 149.

Infinity - USAriadna: 5th Minutemen, "Ohio"
The 5th Minutemen, "Ohio" are another possible fireteam for your USAriadna army. Burst 3 flamethrowers on the Active Turn, anyone?

The white markings - stars, rank insignia, etc - were painted using VGC Stonewall Grey and White. I would line the edges with Military Green 089 to tighten up the designs and set them off from the armor.

Infinity - USAriadna: Maverick
There is a brand new Infinity sectorial army coming out right now, and it is the USAriadna Ranger Force sectorial of Ariadna! These models are available for pre-order now, and will be available at GenCon today!
Ariadna gets bikes! The first bikes for Ariadna come in the form of this awesome USARF Maverick. You can take up to 5 in the Sectorial, and they can be Specialists (Forward Observer), run around with Rocket Launchers, or wield a Boarding Shotgun like this little lady. This particular Maverick can only be had as part of the USAriadna Army Pack.
The rocks on the bases were first painted the same as the ground, and then glazed with P3 Cryx Bane Base and Black, leaving some of the reddish-tan showing through in places. Then they were highlighted with Cryx Bane Highlight <> VMC Ivory 005. The grass tufts are by Army Painter.

Infinity - USAriadna: Maverick (Dismounted)
The Dismounted Maverick is a special edition miniature, only available if you pre-ordered the USAriadna Army Pack. You have until August 2nd to pick her up, or get her right now at GenCon!
She would make a nice HVT for your USAriadna force, or fills in perfectly as an USARF Grunt Forward Observer!
Brown straps, holsters and armor plates found throughout these USAriadna models were painted P3 Gun Corps Brown, then shaded with Battlefield Brown and a mix of Battlefield Brown and Exile Blue. They were then highlighted with Beast Hide and lined with RMS Brown Liner. Final edge highlights were applied with VMC Khaki 115 + Iraqi Sand 124, and pure Iraqi Sand.

Infinity - USAriadna: Marauder
There is a brand new Infinity sectorial army coming out right now, and it is the USAriadna Ranger Force sectorial of Ariadna! These models are available for pre-order now, and will be available at GenCon starting tomorrow!
The Marauders can form a traditional Link Team, and they also have the ability to form a second Haris Fireteam. So many Heavy Flamethrowers, and a great Lieutenant option for USAriadna.
The desert bases are new resin bases by Warsenal, "USAriadna Bases," designed by the man, Angel Giraldez, himself!
I painted them with VMC Light Brown 129, highlighted with Tan Yellow 122. They were then given a wash of P3 Bloodstone. I reclaimed highlights with Tan Yellow, and further highlighted with Iraqi Sand 124 and Ivory 005. I added shading and lining with VMC Cavalry Brown 137, and then added tones with P3 Cryx Bane Base by thinning it down and applying translucent glazes.

Infinity - USAriadna: Hardcase Frontiersman
There is a brand new Infinity sectorial army coming out right now, and it is the USAriadna Ranger Force sectorial of Ariadna! These models are available for pre-order now, and will be available at GenCon this week.
The Hardcase Frontiersman with tactical bow was a July release, so is already readily available and does not come as part of the USAriadna starter army pack.
The blue seen here on his "Freedom Shoulder" and in various other details on this army was based with VMC Prussian Blue 051, highlighted with Ultramarine 055 <> White. Shading was applied with Dark Prussian Blue 050.

Infinity - USAriadna Grunt
There is a brand new Infinity sectorial army coming out right now, and it is the USAriadna Ranger Force sectorial of Ariadna! These models are available for pre-order now, and will be available at GenCon this week.
Continuing the tradition set forth with the new PanOceania and Nomads starters from Operation: Icestorm, the third basic infantry model in the USAriadna starter is a cute female trooper.
And a family shot of the USARF Grunts:
The bases for these models are a brand new product from Warsenal: Comanche Bases! Just like their Tunguska bases, they are layered acrylic rounds that you can mount atop a standard gaming base. These match the textures of their Comanche terrain line! Super sweet!
I added some fine sand to help tie them in with the badlands style bases of the rest of the army.

Infinity - USAriadna: USARF Grunt
There is a brand new Infinity sectorial army coming out right now, and it is the USAriadna Ranger Force sectorial of Ariadna! These models are available for pre-order now, and will be available at GenCon next week.
This second basic infantry for the USARF has a wicked cool balaclava and sunglasses.
The weapons and boots were first painted black, then VMC Black Grey168, leaving the black in the cracks, recesses, and shadows (so Black Grey becomes the "main color." It still reads as black, but allows you to add shadows with black - since you can't add shadows to pure black, of course!).
They were then highlighted with Dark Grey 166, Neutral Grey 160, and Light Grey 155 with some very tiny final highlights of white on the sharpest edges.
