I thought you might enjoy a sneak preview of something Wargames Illustrated have got up their sleeves and will be announcing soon.

Here's a couple of fellows I was sent to paint up for them ... details to follow!

Fantastic! In particular the Trotsky mini!

As usual cracking paint jobs, Paul. That Trotsky mini is gorgeous.

Thanks guys, funny enough I preferred the Duke all the way along, but then doing the final touches to Trotsky - the peak on the cap, the little poster under his foot (if you look closely you'll see it's him on a 1930's communist image) - really brought out the quality of the sculpt.

well, the Duke is a great sculpt and top notch painted too, but no one can beat such a lovely Trotsky

Very nice! (Tell WI we need a Lenin to go with Trotsky.)

Top work Paul. Love them both.

Brill! Top notch!

Beautifully painted and Marion Wayne is a lovely sculpt save for the slightly odd looking Garand but I think I still prefer the Copplestone Trotsky to this one.

Stunning work on these Paul

Great sculpts, lovely brushwork = a perfect combination

Cubs · « **Reply #11 on:** August 14, 2015, 10:57:27 PM »

Thanks guys. I think Malamute hit the nail on the head - I can't emphasise enough how easy it is to put a decent paintjob onto a really nicely sculpted, crisply cast model. The damn things nearly paint themselves.

Both are great, really nice painting

That's certainly a hell of a paint job!

Absolutely stunning.
But the Garand looks more like a tree trunk than a rifle...

Is that you John Wayne... hell no, it's Sergeant Stryker!
