Russian Survivor Squad, pt 3
I have finished the second member of my survivor squad. I think this pose is the best of the lot and I am glad the Secrets of the Third Reich (SoTR ) range comes with the Separate Head System (SHS). It’s a clever concept but can allow for some minor variations of figures with great results. I again attempted to paint the cloak using camoflage patterns. I *did* highlight this one more than the last but it’s still not very evident. When I started to do the pattern highlights, they seemed to change the way the pattern appeared.
The base was made from green stuff and parakeet gravel. The flock is from GF9′s new range. The skull comes from a Reaper Master Series Paint bottle that I had finished up. I used metallics on the metal rather than using a NMM technique but I got the transitions smoother than in the previous miniature so I am pleased with that. This is a guy that has seen some action….
