Finally getting around to doing some villainous Reds. Hope I got the Insignia more or less correct.

Yearly painting challenges only show me how useless I am at painting...

They're just misunderstood!  Great painting!

All limitations are self imposed.  Work hard and dream big.

Excellent work.
But I would not advise to draw red armbands. This is just typical of the Red Guards in the period of 1917 - beginning of 1918. The armbands were not regular forces.

Cheers for the compliments, I will not have any more armbands in the future I suppose said officer must have kept his from his red guard days.

A banner bearer has been done today anyway. Shame there aren't more suitable pictures online to use for 28mm bolshie banners.
