Retreat From Moscow
Russian Line Infantry
It’s been a little while since I’ve worked on anything for this project, but I’ve been working on some Russian line infantry (which incidentally coincided with a Silver Bayonet theme week at OTT). These are again are firmly on the historical side of this project rather than the gothic horror, but I felt I was lacking in plain Russian infantry to harassing the stragglers of the Grande Armee.
These chaps come from Wargames Foundry, and are sculpted by Alan Perry. Whilst Russians in great coats are not that hard to find, those wearing extra scarves and looking the part for the winter of 1812 are not so common. Nice one piece casts, relatively quick to paint and without excessive detail.
I thought I’d take a couple of comparison pictures to show how the Wargames Foundry models compare size wise to some others in case that is useful to anyone (namely Perrys and Paul Hicks sculpts for Murawski Miniatures). The Foundry models are a shade shorter and stouter, than both.
