Now I have picked some strange projects over the years, I doubt if I can incorporate them into the RJW project but these look like a joy to paint.
Khurasan have today launched a new range 28mm Rodent Civil Wars.
Their press release states as follows.
We have both the Bolshirats and the Menshimice
for this tumultuous war, as well as the dreaded Adlerkorps mercenary
stosstruppen. The models were sculpted by Bob Olley, and these were
painted by Andrew Taylor.
The range is 28mm scale, but keep in mind that the Bolshirats and Menshimice
are diminutive, so are about 20mm tall. The mighty Adlers are a full
28mm tall. For each rodent range, we have troopers armed with the
Mousin-Nagant rifle, command, and a HMG team.
Here are the Bolshirats – Cheese! Land! Peace! All power to the Rodents!
And then there is....
The fearsome Adlerkorps now serve as mercenaries for any rodent officer lucky (and rich) enough to hire a few. Standing at a full 28mm height, and trained in ferocious stosstruppen tactics, fighting with grenades, submachineguns and even trench-shovels, even one of these grim veterans can turn the course of the battle. Gott strafe die Bulldoggen!
I doubt if they are every likely to grace my own painting table, but they do look rather good... :-)
Lovely paint jobs and the rats and mice have a certain charm, but the Adlerkorps, well they're not my cup of tea.
ReplyDeleteSome times you have to wonder who has more fun?
DeleteThe designer or the game player.
I can't see them every landing on my table top anytime soon.
Truly a golden age! Very odd but I'm sure it'll float someone's boat.
ReplyDeleteI like the bird wielding a spade in particular
Makes you wonder who is next?
DeleteFrench Cats?
British Bulldogs?
American Chipmunks?
Nice paint job on the Russian mice however.
