While painting my Cossack cavalry, I painted 30 on foot and thought "That's the start of my next project." Cavalry in WW II dismounted before/once shots were fired, so that's the basis of this version. Also, I've never seen a "foot Cossacks" Bolt Action army so I decided to fix that. Different is good!
These are mostly Copplestone Casting Miniatures superbly sculpted by Mark Copplestone. Mixed in are some Siberia Miniatures and Warlord Games Soviet plastics with headswaps.
I really enjoyed this project greatly and will continue to add a few more units and bits of character to the lot. I'm planning to debut them at a local Bolt Action event next month. Cheers and I hope you're staying warm!
Sensational! Tremendous work Monty.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Michael! I'm quite happy, this one is a keeper. :-)
DeleteLove them. Copplestone's got a distinctive style, doesn't he?
ReplyDeleteThey do, Marcus! Not sure how I came to "discover" them so late.
DeleteSuch a cool looking army! Makes me think I should add some Cossacks to my own Soviets... Hrm...
ReplyDeleteA Soviet army is never finished. There's always more to add!
