2nd Bn Weapons Coy,1st Regt Soviet Rifle Division 1943-45

Tonight it's the 2nd Battalions Headquarters and Weapons Companies turn.
Anti Tank Rifle Platoon, with the ATR coming from Italeri's Winter set.
82mm Platoon, with ESCI loader again and Italeri figure from the Zis-3 set. This set is very handy for filling out support poses.
1st MMG Platoon, standard ESCI/Italeri figures.
The 2nd MMG Platoon with the Revell poses. The Maxim can be quite a pain to construct with the axle and wheels not fitting that well.

  1. Nice combination, especially the scond picture. The Revell Russians drove me mad. They didn´t fit in the bases and the removing of the flesh was a pain. Nice poses but horrible plastic!

  6. Cheers for the feedback.

    Yes the Revell figures can be a pain, I think it is because of the scaling up from 1/87 from the Prieser moulds.

    ATR teams are real skulkers,in any army Tim!

    Hi John, are the hard plastic figures from the plastic soldier company?
