Two more platoons for Chain of Command or any WW2 rules. A Soviet Platoon to fight my Continuation War Finns and a Bersaglieri Platoon to fight the Greeks I did a few weeks back. Also some notes on lights I have been using whilst painting on the go. Hope it is of some interest.

Really enjoying your work. I must say that my favorite, so far, are your Russians. But all your troops do you proud.

Great job. I recently painted the same picture plastic soviets, and also based them individually. They are great little figures. What did you use for bases? I've been using Euro pennies, because they are small and will stick to magnets (I like to store my figures in trays lined with sheet magnets. The downside is they are a bit thick, and not easy to get in the US! Your bases look better, much thinner and less obtrusive.

May thanks Marc and Ivan. I base them on 15mm diameter penny / flat / mudguard / repair washers. I put a magnet in hole in the middle.
