Comrade! (Part 7)

Snow basing done for LMG squad, Medium Mortar team and the 1st member of my Tank Rider veteran squad.

Started with some sort of medium brown by Games Workshop. (Same brown I've used for basing for years now.) Then a mix of Army Painter snow effect, small squirt of Elmers Glue and a drop or few of white paint. Mix well and apply with an applier thingie. Add some tufts as I saw fit and the odd dark green foliage clump and viola.

Pics!

Group Shot of what I've finished to date as requested by Blaxkleric with the already previewed Officer & Adjutant and Armoured Car.

Lots of yelling going on on this base. Two fellows at the back are individually based to help with keeping track of casualties.

Army Painter Tundra tufts. I also added a dab here and there of my snow mix for extra realismismsisms. Very real.

My finished LMG squad. Lots of dynamic posing here, which the Winter Soviet Infantry plastic set (By Warlord Games) offers in bucket fulls.

I had made a list of names for each and every member of my force but have since lost it. So nameless and faceless they'll remain. Here's Sergeant No-Name and some fellows in very warm-looking padded uniforms.

This picture shows a kneeling soldier tossing a grenade whilst being supported by a shooter on the right. This offers the opportunity for our friend in the center to eventually bring his treasured Panzerfaust to bear against the hated German armour.

Speaking of German armour, here's a molotov thrower supported by two very scared looking troopers.

I've been informed that the squad NCO would frown mightily at this ammo-bearer's flagrant disregard for the safety of his charge. Tossing the ammo can AT your LMG trooper is a no-no. Good thing the sergeant is 3 pictures above and can't see eh?

A brand new addition. The first member painted of my Veteran Tank Riders SMG squad. Nasty buggers, I'm looking forward to seeing what they can do on the table. 

Veteran Soldier bum shot.

 Also finished up 1/2 of a small commission until my neck turned traitor on me and had me resting like an invalid again in extreme discomfort. Years of sitting at a desk are starting to take their ugly toll.
