From SanderS: More Stalingrad Russians!

 Hoi,

 

Still beavering away at the big Warlord Games Stalingrad commission. I try to alternate between a unit of Russians/ Germans and something I like to paint for myself, today it's time for some more Russians. I batch paint them by priming colour and these chaps are all based in Valejo English Uniform since they all wear the padded/ insulated winter gear so typical for Russians at the Eastern front. As such there's too many submachine guns and the poses of the LMG team don't match up.

Another 10 chaps done still about 100 to go!

Cheers Sander

Um... It's been far too long since I last posted. Sorry.

Over the past few weeks, I have been busy with hobby stuff, just not really very much painting. I've been assembling minis and drafting up army lists (handily doing double duty as shopping lists) and all of the other things that go into this wonderful hobby of ours. I have done some painting, but my inner Squirrel has had me start a batch of minis, get distracted, put them to the side, start another bunch and so on. Thankfully some of those batches have started to get close to completion, so I do have something to post today and a bit more to come sooner rather than later.

This cyclops is from Reaper Minis' Bones range and it was a very easy paint job. Which is actually kind of depressing as it has taken me far too long to get done. He's quite a chunky fellow and stands about 50mm tall.

At some point I'm probably going to use him for D&D, along with all the other RPG minis I have painted over the past year and a bit that my group has been socially distancing.
