One of my more recent articles on Must Contain Minis is a showcase of 15mm WW2 Snipers for Flames of War. Below are a couple of sample pictures. If you are interested, head on over and check out the article.

They are indeed nicely done.
But wouldn't an actual sniper be much more concealed than that?

None of them appear to be in 'comfortable' or sniping positions. Don't think they would hit much or survive long like that.

Maybe, but how do you model this????

Would be a pretty boring mini.

I think you would Model that buy just making a base of foliage and saying the sniper is in there. I would certainly accept that explanation. :)

Yeah, I'd use one of the 'practice bases' without any minis on it for a 'real' sniper stand.

Who's left a red hoola-hoop against a tree

Yeah, but there is a practical problem here. What if you lose your sniper in the scatter terrain????
