I decided to turn the sprue of Krauts that came with Wargames Illustrated into a set of International Brigaders.

They came out better than I expected! Threw some green stuff and Empress heads on them and I was all set.

I filed down the pointy nazi officer's cap so it resembled a Spanish one.

Next up I'll try the Warlord Russian winter sprue, which I expect will work well too, given the Republicans used soviet equipment.

Thank you! I haven't done much greenstuff before, but I find just having the right tools makes a big difference.

I've realised that I could adapt an MP44 into a Chauchat LMG fairly easily, so going to try that too. The big selection of gubbinz on Warlord sprues gives you a lot of options.

Awesome! :-* :-* :-*

Greatcoats provides so many options. Also that you often can change the position of the legs is a nice option  ;)

Those are terrific! Do you want an extra sprue of Germans?
