Paratroopers And Partisans

For something a little different I have decided to add a partisan brigade to my WWII Soviet collection. 
For particular operations, particularly in the build up to Operation Bagration paratroops could be drop in to support them.
The first of the partisans a HQ and demolition team.
Secondly a brigade squad.
The figures are from Check Point Miniatures and the bases from Warbases.
I hope to pick up more partisans at Hammerhead on Saturday from Grubby Tanks, these are Britannia Miniatures a lot more chunky than CP but they will meld in on the table if kept in their own squads.
Another WW2 game is planned in OHQ next week.
Until next time KBO

    Interesting mix of figures and all handsomely painted. Have not seen this manufacturer before. Unique sculpting style that gives the impression of the figures being underfed.

      Thank you Jonathan. The difference doesn't appear to show up on the table in 20mm like it does with 28mm for some reason

    Grand additions to the Soviet hordes! Perhaps one distant day I may even lead them to a victory!

      Thank you. Hopefully not too distant, but you know how easily I am distracted 🦋

    Fist class work there once again Phil. I've become very keen on mixing figures from various manufactures to help create that "unique" look... sometimes even within the same unit. It's all down to personal taste of course, but in my view, these look superb! Sorry I missed you at Hammerhead, I kept looking around but it was rather crowdded.

    Thank you Paul. I picked up some Britannia partisans at the show and thought a tad more rotund they meld pretty well. Yes it was a very busy show indeed.
