[2nd RCW] Я бегу сразиться с тенью лжи

[Mad Doc Morris]

Massively tempted by Hazel's start into the age of hyper-modern warfare, I had to buy some models for this setting as well. We've planned to build a small force usable for the odd skirmish on background of the (hopefully) fictious Second Russian Civil War. My first choice were the Neo-Tsarist, a wacky faction made up of heavily undersupplied partisans. Therefore (for a start!) no big guns, no mechas, but a few irregulars and their - most probably looted - transport vehicle.





All in all, those guys were nor as professionally painted as Hazel's Neo-Kornilovs nor as artfully as Doc Phobos' Neo-Orthodox Christians. However, this project has broadend my horizon quite a bit, since up to now I have avoided painting camouflage patterns, 'battle damage' and 'used look' like hell. Let's see, if I'll get the trick - and stay with it. The close-ups already make me think it all over again...

Never mind, here's yet a scale comparison for those interested:



The footsloggers are Copplestone's, partly newly employed polar explorers, partly - what a surprise! - partisans from his Neo-Soviet range. The carrier is an Old Crow model, and this company gets my highest recommendation for it. Awesome piece!

More can be found in my recent blog entry.

Thanks for watching anyway!

Lovely stuff, Mad Doc. Great figures.

[Chambersofminiatures]

Great PJs. I always like the eclectic look when it comes to small units. Please post more!

[marrony]

Really like these blokes...excellent paintwork and colour palettes.

[Hawkeye]

A great rag-tag look to those partisans - very nicely done, and a nice diversity of colour too. The Old Crow vehicle looks fantastic! I picked up a Gecko and something else a couple of months ago, and was very impressed. Looking at how well this one scales up, I think I'll have to get one of those for my Star Mogul project too. Nice! What's up next for these guys?

[Mad Doc Morris]

Thanks to all, glad (and relieved) you like these guys.
Next up are some more infantrymen, and probably a little piece of (looted, again) high-tech. If (s)he decides to, the myterious heir might make an appearance as well. The vozvrashchenie needs every (wo)man at the front.

They look awesome, don't know what you're worried about!

I love the title to the thread though

[Mr.J]

They look excellent! I like them a lot!

[Bako]

They look quite swell, and those arctic explorers are quite effective.

Nice figures and faction.
