I’ve done a few more bits for my Winter War game project which I thought I’d share.
First up a Finnish 20mm zAnti Tank Rifle. A big powerful gun- there was only a single example in use during the Winter War.
Some prone Soviets, armed with a mix of rifles and light machine guns.
A Soviet sniper pair.
Finally a couple of Maxim medium machine gun teams (although technically speaking they wear the later M1940 helmet- I didn’t have any of the early ones spare to do head swaps on them.).
Cheers,
Pete.
These look really good, Pete! 🙂 The only 20mm Russians with the earlier helmet I’ve seen (Shellhole I think) didn’t look all that different from the 1940 model anyway – the comb and flared sides seem to disappear at more than a few inches distance! Made me realise it wasn’t worth getting new troops for Khalkin Gol in 1939!
Thanks John. I don’t think it is worth while swapping either- it is not that different. A bead of gel superglue across the crast could work… gives me something to think about.
Cheers,
Pete.
Looking good Pete
Thank you.
Cheers,
Pete.
Very nice! What scale are those? You probably mentioned it in an earlier entry, but I am too lazy to go look.
Thanks- they are all 20mm figures.
Cheers,
Pete.
Very nice Pete.
Thank you.
Cheers,
Pete.
Great snow effect!
Thanks- it is just some very light almost fluffy snow flock I have. Sadly of unknown provenance now.
Cheers,
Pete.
Great work on these, Pete!
Thank you.
Cheers,
Pete.
Those are great! I can’t imagine the recoil from a shoulder-fired 20 mm gun!
Thank you.
Even with a well designed stock and a big muzzle brake it woulf still be an immense recoil.
Cheers,
Pete.
Those are lovely, tow things I love seeing are winter war figures and 20mm ones (I know I’m a bit odd like that!). Smashing stuff sir!
Cheers Roger.
Thanks Roger- winter troops do have a certain charm to them don’t they?
Cheers,
Pete.
Love the snowy bases – they look excellent
Thank you.
All from snow flock- I wish I could remember where it was from.
Cheers,
Pete.
Once again Pete great work, Happy New Year!
Thank you Mark- happy New Year to you too.
Cheers,
Pete.
Great work Pete you got the snow working really well on the bases. I really like the pair pulling the machine gun in the last image.
Thank you- it is a great pair of figures and nice to have the MMG mounted on a sledge too.
Cheers,
Pete.
