Hi All,

6.SS-GEBIRGS-DIVISION, RUSSIA 1943. 1:35 scale.

Recipe

Figures - are from Dragon and are from kit #6707, I got two kits so I can do small vignettes with them. The map is from Miniart which come's with their German WW2 weapons kit #35247. The straps for the weapons, goggles and bino's are thin paper painted and cut to size.

The arms bands are also paper painted and cut to size and the mud on the uniforms is a mix of spakfilla and paint.

Base - is thick foam board with balsa wood edges and the ground work was done by mixing spakfilla and a small amount of dirt and applying it to the base.
I then gave the ground work several washes of Vallejo's Chocolate brown and left it to dry. Once the washes were dry I placed the dead grass tufts which I picked up from my local gaming shop which were dry brushed with Vallejo's Beige brown and the dead bushes are left over pieces from Woodland Scenics Olive Green Foliage set.

Once all the foliage was glued in place I then glued the figures and then added the snow by using watered down spakfilla.
