WIP - Soviet Infantry 2nd Company

Greetings troops,

Sorry I have not posted many articles lately.  We had to move out of house while repairs are being completed due to water leaks.  Needless to say my nomad ways have allowed me to bring some supplies and models to keep the paint flowing while this occurs.

Here are some photos I took recently ... I was able to get two colors down before "Commie Cramps" kicked in.  I am using the method shared with me by Pete, fellow WWPD'er shared.  I sprayed the figures with German Armor yellow first.  After touch ups I hit all figures with a double dose of straight Devlan Mud Wash from GW.  Today I was able to place US Tan and Russian Green on the figures.  Let me know what ya think !

Priming and Wash ...

AND more Priming and Wash

US Tan applied to bedrolls overcoats and bags, Russian Green to the helmets.  Tan Flesh and wash was applied before using the Inside Out Method from Dirty Jon

More US Tan and Russian Green ...

And more ...

And more !

Ongoing theme !

Done .... "Commie Cramps" had set in ...

Keep the Paint flowing and the Dice rolling !!!

Be safe ...

  3. Haha, you make it sound so easy, "I just spray 'em, throw on some wash, some other colors..." and they look so great. Good work, sorry to hear of your wandering homestead, must've been some serious leaks! Hope everything gets back to working order sooner than later.

    1. @ Mik ... Thanks for the kind words. I am currently looking for medical cures for "Commie Cramps" as we speak.

      About a month for the repairs and such. It could be worse but we are in good hands !
