Title: My Eastern Front collection
Post by: racm32 on May 30, 2019, 06:23:18 PM: Been going through all my collections to inventory what I have and what I need to work on/get. So since I had my entire WW1 collection out I figured I'd share it with you all.
Here is the whole lot with 4ground buildings in the back.

I plan to add Austrians to fight alongside my Germans. I also want to paint a bunch more Russians but in the white shirts.

What is the mark of the Russians please.

I have a fair few of those Russians and they from Brigade’s Storm in the East range :)

I have a similar collection myself, and I believe that for the Whites the machine gun in black is from Copplestone, while the infantry figures, Cossacks, and artillery piece are from Brigade Games' Storm in the East range as mentioned earlier. It's a combination of different kits I believe, one of regular White infantry in caps, another of White infantry in fur hats, and one or both of the command kits.

Post by: racm32 on August 02, 2019, 03:11:55 PM: Thank you all for the compliments. The cobblestone whites's work fine however my paint job is not strictly historically accurate for most the war. Most Russian infantry, before the revolution, wore the white blouses. I painted mine so they could be used for mixed WW1/Civil War whites or reds.
