So I worked on the Siberian AEF for a while but have them to the side for the nonce. After all this is my self declared year of the Warlord Chinese! So here are a company of Chinese Student Militia from Crucible Crush formerly Pulp Figures. I have posted two of these fellas in the BOB Painting Club but I figure that any more would be redundant. So here are the rest of these fellows depicted in situ in far Manchuria.

Stay tuned I have a Chinese supply column, Chinese support weapons, another company of Chinese Infantry, Chinese bandits/insurgents, and of course Siberian AEF on the painting table!

Very nice indeed!

Great to see that Pulp Figures has made those moulds available to Crucible Crush while the sculpts for their new BoB lines are being done.  8)

Television is rather a frightening business. But I get all the relaxation I want from my collection of model soldiers. P. Cushing

Some of the Dogmeat General's logistics corps, in other words some poor bloody peasants doing hard, unpaid work for the greater glory of the  generalissimo (and to keep their village from being torched).



These are the start of a bunch of these fellows on my painting table.

Love the students but the 'Logistics Corps' are brilliant!

The Dogmeat General's logistic corps continues to grow, transporting rice, beans, and bullets off the rails and into the hinterland.




The logistics corps so far.




There are 5 more on the painting table so the corps will continue to grow. Somewhere there are 28mm women and children weeping and burning incense over the Dogmeat General's "recruitment" effort.

Lovely additions, Lon.
 :-* :-*

Not much hope of those fellas getting a Union to join, I guess....
 ;)


I love that bridge too, not noticed it before.
Is it a new 'find' or scratchbuilt?

Thanks fellows!
Paul, it is true that there are not many union organizers in the Dogmeat General's sector of the Back of Beyond. Organizers of the proletariat tend to take more direct action in areas under his rule  lol lol. The bridge is an aquarium piece that I picked up a few years ago up on Saipan.

Lon (Lobster Boy),

Very nice indeed !

Nice paint job, nice terrain.  Decorative porcelain, or 'Fish Tank Thing' ?

I'm a sucker for the Copplestone Chinese Warlord riflemen in caps,
not fur hats.  If you putty over the puttees, to give them long trousers, they make great Federales.

Many compliments,
MW
