Next batch of Russians have finally made it off the painting bench.
First some 45mm ATGs
Then 76mm field guns
and finally some more rifles
These are all from the Plastic Soldier range. The infantry box gave me some nostalgic moments. It was a bit like old Airfix figures that I first started wargaming with. Lots of figures, but plenty of useless poses. Plastic Soldier isn't quite that bad, but there are a lot of strange poses for rifle platoons. In addition the gluing together of figures in 15mm is very fiddly and unecessary as the poses are largely fixed. Having said that the castings are very nice and good value.
The artillery pieces fitted together very well and even in 15mm not too fiddly. I have the support weapons on the painting bench at present. Again not a bad fit, although some one piece moldings would be welcome. Particularly the HMGs.
I have a box of their 45mm anti tank guns. I haven't assembled them yet but they look good and have the options to choose from three different guns.
ReplyDeleteThat is a definite plus. The flexibility is useful.
