Muddy, Snowy Tanks

Painted some 15mm Soviet armor I had sitting around.  Tanks are in winter whitewash with a liberal application of mud, rust, and grime.


First batch are T-70's, an interesting little tank . . . well armored and a good gun for its size.  Not much use by '44 though except as a recon tank.  These are all Plastic Soldier Company models.










Second batch are T34's.  Again these are Plastic Soldier Company models.  Also have a set of turrets to convert them to T34/85's, though the wheels and hull are not correct for T34/85 but close enough for gaming.











And third batch are Battlefront Models.  A KV-1, two factory types of T34, and a T-60.

28mm WWII Sovet Infantry

I recently completed some 28mm Soviet WWII Infantry from Plastic Soldier Company.  I don't like these plastic figures as much as metal figs.  While the sculpts are more to scale than most, the plastic rifles tend to break or bend, and there is not much "depth" to the sculpting . . . there are not cuts and folds in the sculpt for the brush to find and help bring out detail.  Also, as you can see from the side by side shot with a Westwind (?) metal figure, their size is larger than most metal figures.
