Russian Civil War: The Whites

 Moving on to the forces know overall as the Whites, including everything from leftist Social-Revolutionaries, to Menshiviks, Centralist Cadets, and Right Wing Monarchists. The First two photos show the elite Kornilov Division. These miniatures are I believe from STP Miniatures out of St Petersburg, although I purchased them from Siberia Miniatures...


Next two photos of some regular White troops also from Siberia (I highly recommend their miniatures)...

A Lewis Gun Team (from Tiger Miniatures) on left, with some standard troops (from Copplestone)...
Kuban Cossacks (from Siberia) in the next two photos...

And finally, for now at least, some Don Cossacks (from Askari Miniatures)...
To be continued...

Russian Civil War: The Reds

 Along with our continuing Blood and Plunder Campaign, I've taking a dive into he Russian Civil War  with new and interesting figures to paint and buildings to put together. To start off, I have some of my Bolshevik forces to illustrate, so here we go.

First up are some Kronstadt sailors, backbone of numerous Red units. These come from Copplestone and their Back and Beyond range...

Next are some generic Bolshies, these coming from Siberia Miniatures in Russia. I highly recommend them...
Some more Bolsheviks from Siberia...
Siberia Minis on left, with Copplestone's three on right...
More Copplestone...
A good old Maxim from Siberia...
Finally, can't do the RCW without cavalry, these are Copplestone as well...
Next up, the Whites...
