Some shirkers I have painted for Bolt Action. I enjoyed this little "Frankenstein" type of project.

Nicely done, but they look rather combative to be shirkers. Jim |

Beautiful figures. It is a shame to degrade these, but you can do so by adding a Volkssturm armband

Hi Bobgnar, As it happens, these are not Volksturms but from the Legion Freies Indien. For more information about this little known units:

Yes, the turbans and skin tones made me think they were Free Indians. From Indian Army unit troops captured by the Germans in North Africa and Italy. A similar thing happened in the PTO with some of the Indian troops captured by the IJFs.
Great paint jobs !!!
