Great pieces. Cant wait till they are avail. Job well done guys.
-
Love 'em! Although, I would say that the Fighter piece looks a little… stocky/balloonish? I would expect it to be a wee bit slimmer?

Actually, the I-16 looked very much like this sculp. It was kind of “bulky” for a fighter, which is why in the early stages of Barbarossa what few actually got into the air to try and stop the German onslaught were totally outclassed by the Luftwaffe fighters and thus sent crashing to the ground in flames. Much Soviet equipment was obsolete like this right at first but once they got over the shock and into the swing of things, they started designing and manufacturing much sleeker and competitive fighters.
The two engine plane sculp; is that the transport plane or the medium bomber?

Yeah, I remember seeing a little of them from my dvds on WW2, specifically the opening days of Barbarossa. They were relatively slow too. In one shot they showed an Me-109 pilot in the cockpit view as he chased and pumped bullets into an I-16 and actually passed it. You see him looking back trying to find the plane.
The two engine shown is the medium bomber.
Thanks. It looks cool. These will be available in both the OOB Maroon color and the Burgandy color of FMG’s Soviet Combat Dice?
-
Russian set will actually be done in 4 colors. G40 OOB (black-cherry color), maroon from Europe 41 (1999 ed), red for Communist Chinese, and plum (purple) for Spanish Republic. Of course, you can use the 4 colors any way you wish!
-
The SU2 looks good too.This will be a good set!
-
Hey Variable do you know if this is all the pieces? Is there going to be a infantry piece and artillery piece? Thanks for the info. BTW this looks like the best set so far.
-
Yes, list is on first post.
-

Will the planned red colour for the HBG Soviet pieces closely match the FMG red Soviet Combat Dice?

Probably not. It will likely be a bit brighter than that. We will know for sure once color swatches have been approved.

“Coach”,
Back on Jan. 26 I asked if you planned to release some Russian Airborne Paratroopers in a future set. I looked back over the postings but didn’t see your response.
I realize you’re busy working on the CURRENT Russian set and this would be in a FUTURE set, but I just wanted to know. Thanks for your time.

Yes, I plan on doing an Airborne unit for all major nations.
