Bad Squid Female Soviet troops - PPSH-41 SMG revisited

When I posted photographs of this figure on the Rubicon site, it was pointed out that the bags and pouches should not be leather coloured as they were canvas. I repainted it with Citadel Steel Legion Drab.

It is still a bit dark.

Bad Squid Female Soviet troops - PPSH-41 SMG

This is the first of the Bad Squiddo Soviet soldiers I have painted. They clean up reasonably well, but this one has an unfortunate mould line running across the helmet and then across the face. The discontinuity is obvious on the helmet at this magnification.

 I still have to add some foliage to the base.

Here she is being supported by a T34/76.

Comparison with a Bolt Action Soviet Infantry man.

 The bodies are only slightly smaller in stature, the helmet and gun are both smaller.

 Though there is a difference, for the SMG gunners it is not that noticeable. However, it will be noticeable for the rifle armed troops, but I need to paint them first.

A final shot of the Bolt Action figure and the Rubicon T34/76.

Rubicon Models Studebaker U3 (without the Katyusha BM-13 MRL) base coated

So the Studebaker has now been base coated. Body with Humbrol Dark Green (to match the T34/76).

Tyres are a mix of Vallejo Black and Black Grey. The underside were coated in Citadel Stirland Mud textured paint. The seat is Vallejo Burnt Cadmium and the steering wheel Citadel Mournfang Brown. The bench seats were lightly painted with Vallejo Old Wood.

The body was washed with Citadel Athonian Camoshade.

The figure is a Bad Squiddo Female Soviet soldier.

The vehicle still needs decals and final weathering.
