1:35 Soviet Soldiers II 1943-1945

Evolution Miniatures Soviet Soldiers II (1943–1945) – figures in 1:35

This is a resin set of figures of Soviet soldiers of the years 1943 to 1945 in 1:35 scale from Evolution Miniatures, the second in this themed range. It is not a model of military equipment, but standalone figures for rounding out a diorama.

The subject

The set captures historical figures of Red Army soldiers of the late phase of the Second World War in period uniforms and with period equipment, in poses that complement the first set. The treatment is factual and historical and meant for modeling.

Building and painting tips

First wash the mold release residue off the resin parts in lukewarm soapy water, carefully cut off the casting blocks and sand the mold seams. Bond the parts with super glue (cyanoacrylate); protect your airways when sanding resin. Apply a primer and use acrylics or oils suited to figures: pick the face and the hands out with glazes and the folds of the clothing with a dry brush.

Who it is for

• Builders of dioramas and of combat or rear-area scenes in 1:35 scale
• Collectors and painters of figures
• More advanced modelers used to working with resin
• Anyone looking for a standalone figure for a scene

The figures are supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
