Modern Russian Infantry - 28mm Modern Wargames

 

After a lucky haul on a Modern Miniatures Facebook group, I managed to start work on 4 sets of 4 Russian Infantry designed by White Dragon Miniatures, with urban bases.

These miniatures were definitely a solid addition to my Russian themed force, to bulk out infantry numbers for larger modern tabletop warfare games.
The majority of them are armed with the standard issue AK-74M, with specialists carrying RPG-7s and PKP Pecheneg LMGs.
Every miniature has goggles and a mask on their face, which was great for making them all uniform and allowing me to focus my time more on painting features and details as opposed to skin tones.

Russian GRU Spetsnaz Team - Spectre: Operations

After many moons waiting to get into Spectre: Operations, I finally decided to take the plunge after Spectre Miniatures decided to release a Starter Set and I was eventually coerced rather horrifically by my lovely group of totally-not-persistent 'friends'. I joke of course, it was all my idea...

So here we are. My first set of Spectre Miniatures fully painted (bases are to be decided depending on gameplay). These dudes are GRU Spetsnaz Special Forces, they're very capable in a wide variety of situations and are pretty well equipped!

These guys were actually really fast to paint, completed in about 4 sittings. So... I'm gonna break down the process of how I got these chappies from pieces of metal, to fully painted Special Forces Operatives. I hope you brought your brown pants...
