Our ongoing Barbarosa Project calls for a "political section" - including a Soviet commisar. Where to find one in 28mm scale?
Once again, it turns out that Battle Honours makes Soviet NKVD political troops (as part of their Late-War line) - and 19th Century Miniatures (manufacturer of the product line) was kind enough to supply figures for this project.
In looking for a qualified painter to do a world-class job for the Project, we were immediately attracted to DJD Miniatures. They've made a big splash in the hobby lately, operating a large-scale professional painting service with the head office in Vancouver, and operations in Thailand.
So we contacted them, and Dave at DJD replied: "We would be very interested in painting up the Soviet figures, or for that matter any others you wanted to get painted."
So we're sending the figures to Thailand...by way of Vancouver!
