FINNISHED THE FINNS?!

Well, the first 59 at least! My goal when I painted them was to capture the dirty aspect of being in the snow, could have gone a bit more in depth and may toy with the dirt more at a later date. For now, I like how they turned out.

The painting style I will post up later but was pretty much what was posted on the Baker Company Forums with some liberties taken on color choices based on what I had. The choices of gloves and boots was intended to give the Finns that rag-tag feel of holding the line against the Soviet horde. So, you will see variations of color on gloves, boots and hats as well.....I tried to keep to a 2 or 3 color choice to keep things simple but enough to create variety!

LMGS

Standing LMG

Laying down LMG, I had to use the bushes to conceal a break on the weapon barrel.

Officer with assistant. I plan to use the officer as an observer and the guy to the left is a unique pose that will act as the officer with a rifle.

Medic (left) with rifle and the White Death Himself (the only non-Baker Company so far)

White Death detail....very nice work by Warlord.

The Medic with a rifle? Really? The Soviets don't play fair. 

I see him as a two for one, a poor man's sniper and a medic for a low price and extra draw dice.

The Back, going to repaint the cross, must have been tired or something. I went with the black bag instead of the green to give the feel that he may have been a doctor or med student before the war.

Finnish SMGs

Close up...still need to dust some snow off...

Standing SMGs.

Panzerfausts

This was converted from the NCO that is waving his men forward. 

Simply, I filed down the figure around the arm join.

I used the SMG right arm from the German plastic range by Warlord.

Glued it on, filled it in, added a Panzerfaust! Done!
