Mick , Scottie, Steve and Peter thanks for the support fellas ! It will take quite sometime until it’s done! I have to do some research about what colours I should use to paint them as I never did Russians before the main uniform colour i use khaki and i go from there! Also thanks Miguel I have a separate room for them you know the man cave!

Danny, I thought I'd plenty of figures to paint for my 1/72 Rorke's Drift dio., but all these in 1/35?! My admiration knows no bounds.

Excellent stuff.

[Guest]

Hi Ron thanks for the kind words! It is very slow and tedious job loads of patience but no rush as you said its not a few it’s whole army of 63! Best regards Danny

 

[Guest]

Hi Danny.
Just checking in, seeing how your " little "army is progressing. All looking good.:thumb2:
Russian colors are far easier than the Germans that you have done in the past so you will breeze through this.:smiling2:
John.
