Been a while eh? Well, real life has thrown me for a loop *more on this another day maybe* and I haven't felt inspired much to paint a damned thing these last few weeks.
Last night though I decided to slap some paint on these three Soviet fellows, a second SMG-toting Tank Rider and a Flame-Thrower team. They'll do for tabletop play - pics were pre-dulcote and in piss poor lighting, but I'll photo them properly when I can get a group shot - enjoy!

| The horrors of war can certainly be shocking. Or maybe this chap has come across something horrifying during the Konflikt? |
 |
| Flame-Thrower team. The 'Thrower is a cool ROKS model that the Soviets came up with to try to confuse sharpshooters so they'll think it was just a regular rifle from distance. |
 |
| I really do like Warlord's metal sculpts. Chock full of character and detail. All of the previewed snow bases have since been cleaned up a tad after I saw random grasstuft pieces, etc that needed fixing. |

| Bonus picture of some transport elements that arrived recently. A ZIS-6 truck and a GAZ-67 jeep-thing. Both models were resin with metal parts and went together relatively straight forward after some cleanup and trimming. The truck came with all the cab details and a driver, but to keep things simple and paint-time low I instead stuck in some plastic pieces over the windows and will just paint those instead. The one part I didn't enjoy was the GAZ-67's windscreen - it was bent to bollocks and I've no idea how I'll stick clear plastic in to make "glass". Only patience will tell. |
