I've finished my Bolshevik infantry, for now. These are more of the Copplestone Figures and have some bad mould lines that I should have worked on more. The painting is OK but I'm still ramping up my painting. Always takes me a couple of weeks to sort out my technique after a long break - I kinda forget how to paint, and I never knew how to photograph.

Infantry
Er....Infantry
Cavalry, no wait, Infantry
Lewis gun support
Officers and Commissars - love the megaphone
Maxim gun
The basing is simple and is supposed to represent the Steppe in Autumn - mud.
That is 26 infantry, 3 prone figures and a gun.
Time to move on to something different.

More Bolshie reinforcements, Urahh!
Those two Commissars are suitably inspirational (though I suppose anybody is 'inspirational' when they have a Makarov pointed at your head) and I really like the emplaced HMG team as well. Wonderful work Martin. I really quite enjoyed this project of yours and am sorry to see it come to a close. Nonetheless, you've inspired me to get some more of my RCW done so they've moved up the list a few spots - thanks for that! :)
149 Points for your sterling efforts. Well done, Martin!
Cheers. Not quite finished yet. Cool stuff still to prep.
ReplyDeleteNice looking bolsheviks, always like a maxim!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
cheers
DeleteMegaphone's a nice touch - your troops should always be prepared to do a bit of agitprop away from the front lines. That Revolution ain't gonna start itself!
ReplyDeletealways carry a soapbox with the supplies
DeleteNice work Martin :)
ReplyDeletecheers Tamsin
DeleteThere are so many cool figures in the Copplestone Back of Beyond range. I'm tempted *every* time I see them. Nice work Martin!
ReplyDeleteIt is a brilliant range, casting a little off with some of these but will get more. Ta
DeleteWonderful work on the Copplestone figures, Martin! They are an impressive bunch. I really like the officers and supporting gun teams!
ReplyDeletecheers
DeleteGood work!
ReplyDeletecheers
DeleteGood start. Remember that once on the table you basically see the bases and the upper parts of the minis, the rest remain more or less hidden to the eye; hence don’t go crazy in detail with every single part of the minis
ReplyDeleteNo this is true but i do like to paint the figures well. These not my best work
DeleteYou are flying along Martin.
ReplyDeleteWe are getting there.
DeleteGreat bunch of Bolsjeviks Martin!
ReplyDeleteCheers, next batch of different stuff nearly done
DeleteMost grist for the revolutionary mill! Lovely to see this RCW stuff.

DeleteWell done Martin. Let the revolution begin! Super cool.
