A Few More of the Bolshevik Horde

 The latest recruits to march off the painting desk are another group of Tovarishchi, including a couple more converted drugarica (female comrades according to Google :))



With a command base (previously seen)


The new additions


The first conversion



The second conversion 


Also finally completed is the HMG support for the Japanese contingent



Not sure the crewman is on the right side of the weapon but hey ho - its Pulp !



The next dozen Tsuba figures painted as Warlord Chines are complete but I will save them for another post!

  2. Great work, the conversions do the trick, brush work first class. Looking forward to seeing these troops in action. As for the Japanese MG crew, yeah, it's Pulp and they look good!

  3. The mix of quiet background tones and the splashes of colour make for really eye-catching bases.

    1. Are you like Stew Iain, checking your Blog at work?! I am actually answering these three latest comments at my desk as it happens. I dont really have any extra time as I am at work M-F as normal - although we are pretty much restricted to the house at the weekends so I suppose that may help the painting a bit!

    1. Thanks Stew - still plenty more to go - particularly if my Brigade Games order EVER turns up - I am starting to doubt it will do, to be honest, which is a bummer.....

    1. Thanks James - it is a very nice period - perhaps thats why I am also attracted to the Pulp era?

    1. Thanks Lawrence - I know you have had flag issues of your own - mine are simple, I just Google Bolshevik Flags or RCW Flags etc then use Paint and the colour printer at work to do the rest!
