First Russian Troops

[Pappa Midnight]

Just a quick pic of my first "Weird War" Russians to go with my walkers.
They are from the Thrilling Tales range by Artizan Designs.
I tried to paint them in "Cold" colours to reflect the Winter feel to them.



Hopefully Artizan will bring out some more in this range as I really like them.

Cyberian Rifles, I presume?

Very nice. That light grey/white of the coats is nice and dusty. I like it.

Those are great. I like them and now you've painted some I want them more.

they certainly look like they are deep in the Siberian wastelands. Excellant.

I would'nt change a thing about them but I wonder if they would look even colder if you used a more bluey base?

[Captain Blood]

Damn - they look chilly!
Are you sure their skin won't stick to the metalwork on their weapons?  :wink:

[marrony]

Very nice...

[Malamute]

They are superb. Your stuff, just gets better and better :love:    

[Commander Vyper]

Nice Pappa, just one thing.

I know them's 'ard russkies but no gloves? Their fingers would stick to the triggers and freeze up.

So mittens for the next lot please!  

Nice still.

Thank you all for the feedback!

I love "Cyberian Rifles"...very cool!

Valid point about the bases, I was contemplating blue or white, but all of my other "Weird War" stuff have black bases and I'm a little bit of a "stick in the mud" when it comes to making my troops look uniform for the same game.

I thought about the gloves/mittens thing after I finished them (doh!!). Their hands would indeed freeze to their weapons. I may re-work these ( although the Vodka content in their blood may act as a mild form of anti-freeze!!! :mrgreen: )
