Ukrainian Soldier

[AndyFettes]

New fun and yes I know Ive not finished other stuff but wanted to crack on with this

Heres the Evolution Miniatures 1/35 Russian Soldier which will swop sides for this project. A little bit of andyfication: scissors and armbands

Primes with Vallejo grey primer and Tamiya Buff mix which serves as the base colour for the camoflague
eyes painted but may have to go and tidy them up
The darker shade for the camo is Vallejo Russian green

Very well done!! Gary S.

 

[Heavens Eagle]

Looking REALLY NICE!

 

[AndyFettes]

continue,.... heres the camo all sorted will have to go back in a refind some of it
obviously the blue on the front flag patch and maybe a green union jack flag patch on the sleeve and something for the other side dont know what yet
of course I need to do the boots ( I like doing boots )

then I need to sort a base but have a couple of ideas but not sure yet

what do you guys think about the base ? any suggestions?

 

[moon puppy]

Simple base with some soviet scrap iron that looks like tank parts laying around? Yep, I remember your boot treatments.

 

[Greg Kimsey]

Do you want a full diorama type base, a small square base with a few bits of grass, or a simple, clean, round wooden stand just to display the art? Any would work.

 

[Greg Kimsey]

I like the Soviet scrap iron idea even better.

 

[AndyFettes]

Mmmm sounds good
maybe a ruined apartment with a balcony ?

Dude overlooking his handiwork....yes...he smiles with satisfaction beneath his mask, his grin a little crooked..."Who's next?"

 

[AndyFettes]

[paddy]

He should be standing on a poster of Putin in a muddy puddle

PS...this is my kinda figure (no flesh tones )

 

[moon puppy]

That'll be a statement! Still want to see some twisted soviet scrap iron somewhere.

 

[centaur567]
