Dave's Russians

A few pictures of Dave's work in progress. Once complete it looks like he will have two CD3 Russian infantry regiments, including one of Guards.

Converted anti-tank rifle figures

MMGs from the HaT WW1 set

These will form LMG or possibly weapons platoons

The donor figures for that combination

Another MMG option, for variety


A couple of painted examples

Russian Guards formations have both 82 and 120mm mortar platoons

Some different figure combinations

Guards regiment, about 3/4 finished by the look of it

Standard infantry regiment, similar to a Guards one, just not quite so many supporting elements

  2. Hi, Interesting figures in the photo sverhu.Eto machine gunners, but with a machine gun? Dektyarev or Vickers? Or is it anti-tank riflemen with anti-guns?

  4. Mak C: They are Maxims and Vickers with different crews. The anti-tank rifle stands represent a platoon equipped with the PTRS-41. Hope that answers your question?

  6. Mak C. Welcome. Check out Plastic Soldier Company, nice anti-tank rifle figures. For gaming, the figures can represent any model of weapon throughout WW2.
