Russian WWI early war infantry

 I painted these up for Anton and at his request I did not do the bases. I am a firm believer in the mantra faces, bases, and banners. That's what makes the figure look good. So forgive the bases not being done, but he wanted to match stuff he's already done.

Russian uniforms during this period (color wise) were all over the place. Different manufactures, different dyes, and of course lots of fading on campaign. So I went with a photo that came from a book of people actually dressed up in the period uniform. This is my version of that.

Now I only have 46 to go... sigh...



As always thanks for looking. 

Cheers

Kevin
