New Artizan Preview- new releases next week !
« on: July 13, 2007, 03:05:47 PM »
Hi Guys,
           Wanted to show you guys some of the new figures we'll be releasing late next week(or early the week after depending on workload !)

Mike had an idea of some white russian types to fight against the Sky pirates / nacht jager ( or anyone really) , based in the HQ deep in the Himalayas  :-




He's almost finished 2 more of them ( including 1 female)  so there will be 7 available on release together.

Another one-off figure I love is Miss Marbles (Lady sleuth)


Expect about 12 or 13 figures in the release, enough to keep you painting a few days ;-)

Dylan

COMPETITION NEWS !!!!!!

We've been racking our brains to come up with a good name for the White Russian   faction ( ie - not names for each individual figure) and decided to make a quick mini-competition. It's running here and on our Yahoo group.

So you've got the weekend to come up with the best name for the Russians - winner gets all of the figures from next weeks Thrilling Tales release for free.

Submit your names here and Mike and me will go through them on monday. (You wont get any replies from me this weekend, I'm off to my sisters wedding until sunday)

my favourites are the guys in greatcoats totting their PPS-45s'  :D

this is historical but sufficiently obscure so might fit;
I read an article in the newspapers recently which talked about the Ukrainians who fought on the side of the Germans in WW2 under the command of a General Vlasov, apparently a former Hero of the Soviet Union who subsequently organized Ukrainians and others into units to fight alongside the Germans against the Soviets. His men were called the Vlasovzi. Might work for you.

Those White Russians are very nice!  I'll probably use the ones in the greatcoats as Artic explorers!   :)

Lovely models, I think as to a name it would have to be the ill fated protectors "the Guardians of Anastasia" :D

Oooh. Oooh. 'The Sons of Nevski'. Or perhaps 'The Novgorod Kommando' or 'The Carpathian Kommando'. Patriotic Heroes of The Motherland all!
I'm also quite drawn by 'Wolves of The Hungry Steppe'...
Or how about 'The Snow Leopards' or 'Sentinels of The Roof of The World' or...
Hey, I can keep this up all night. How many entries are we allowed?  :wink:

PS. Please let the bald guy be called Ivan Arstikov

How about

VIBORNIE STRELSKI

 :love:  Great figures, althought their sympathies may have to be deep red on my wargames tables!!

Their leader will be Inoff the Red. :lol:

Nice! ('Elite sharpshooters' I think?)

I've got one more, then I'll leave it alone  :)

'The Astrakhan Guards'
