Way back in July 24 we revisited our occasional campaign games in the fictional country of Rhanzlistan where the Great Game continues with the now USSR.
This saw the first outing of the Soviet's auxiliary troops namely the Foreign Auxiliary Rhanzlistan Tribal Section.
At this time I had only the six figures below painted so we had to borrow figures from Dave's Burpha figures. With the possibility of this years aim to get less used collections on the table I thought I should get the rest painted.
Empress Miniatures with a flag from the Flag Dude, purchased way back at Salute certainly dating it prior to Covid!
First they really needed a Soviet commander so I introduce Comrade Baldinski.
I picked this figure up back when Derby Worlds were at Donnington, where someone was selling second hand Brigade Games figures. I believe this was from their Atomic Cafe range sculpted by Paul Hicks. I shaved the shoulder boards off to keep the figure in period.
World War II returns to table this Tuesday, until then toodle pip and KBO.
A splendid addition to the project. When you have completed more additions we will be off to the nearly-NWF!
ReplyDeleteThank you Dave. Looking forward to another visit to Rhanzlistan.
DeleteA rascally looking bunch and Baldinski looks a brutal chap!! Very nicely done indeed.
ReplyDeleteThank you Donnie. He is one mean hombre indeed.
DeleteYou nailed him! He is, indeed, a Soviet from Atomic Cafe range.
ReplyDeleteThought so.
DeleteNice looking additions
ReplyDeleteThank you Neil.
DeleteVery nice Phil…….suitably imposing, I just picked up some more afghans of eBay but I’m awaiting their arrival
ReplyDeleteThank you Matt. It remains to be seen wether he keeps the wily tribesmen under control.
DeleteI look forward to following this project - Back of Beyond/RCW is a great era
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed. I must get the rest of my Chinese Warlord figures painted up and get the collection on the table again
DeleteSplendid Phil.
ReplyDeleteThank you George.
DeleteBaldinski needs to get a bigger hat, his current one is obviously too tight!

DeleteGreat looking additions and Baldinski really looks the part!
