15mm Modern Russian MVD "Vityaz" or Men in Black wearing balaclavas.....

.....from Armies Armies!

Now these are listed as sci-fi on the website but they were the cool looking figures wearing balaclavas and could be loosely based on this unit from the MVD (Ministry of Internal Affairs). 

A little boring painting in black but they didn't turn out too bad, they'll need vehicles though.....

Could be used as Spetsnaz, maybe "Alfa" or any of the Russian elites?

Nice figures, little flash, love the vehicle riders and have some more who will get a more traditional camouflage colour (with 15mm you take what you can get)........







Vitayz (Knight) was formed in 1991, it was assigned specifically to counter terrorism duties, but was trained to deal with civil unrest, prison rebellions and mutinies 





Some real Russian Men in Black.........

15mm Modern Russsian Spetsnaz or "Little Green Men" from......

........Oddzial Osmy.

Modern Russian Spetsnaz (Special Purpose) are general terms used for a variety of special operation forces (or regular forces assigned to special tasks),  Russia has a lot of these units, GRU, Naval, VDV and last seen in the Ukraine I believe or the "Little Green Men"

These are from the AHPC 2015, had a break after the challenge but currently back painting little 15mm men and machines....

Looking at new rules as well and may try modern bolt action?
