More dragon's teeth

    After eight years, I followed again more or less the same procedure, in order to build some more dragon's teeth for the battlefield! This time, I didn't use plastic boxes but paper ones. If you wish, you can see the previous dragon's teeth here. 

The dragon's teeth

An eggs paper box

I marked with a pen the proper height of the teeth

and cut the upper part

I glued the teeth on mdf bases and staffed them with tissue paper soaked in white glue 

I used filler to cover the tissue paper and the mdf bases

I painted the teeth with neutral grey and then highlighted them with light grey and sky grey. All colours are Vallejo acrylics.

   That's it for today! Stay tuned for more! 

Soviet Medics

    Combat medics are responsible for providing emergency medical treatment at a point of wounding in a combat. Geneva convention protects these trained medical personnel as non-combatants in the act of rendering aid. In Bolt Action medics may be considered by many people as useless and therefore are not so popular but they are nice miniatures!

Doctor, nurse and stretcher bearer

   Matryona Necheporchukova was a combat medic of the Red Army who rescued 250 wounded soldiers and officers during WW2. She was awarded the Order of Glory 1st Class.

   Combat medics carry small arms, to be used to protect themselves and the wounded in their care.

   To make the stretcher I cut the blades of two plastic spears, glued the shafts together and wrap them with foil. 

The stretcher bearer

   Recently, we walked the Sarakina gorge. It is an easy one. No need for medics to rescue us!

   That's it for today! Stay tuned for more!

Soviet officers and blog's 13th birthday

    General Chuikov of Soviet 62nd Army and three more Soviet officers are ready to lead my Bolt Action Soviet army. From what we know so far, there are two rank options for officers in Bolt Action 3rd edition, the Platoon Commander (2nd Lt and 1st Lt) and the Company Commander (Captain and Major). Probably, I will need some more officers for all my Soviet platoons.

   I will use this miniature as a Major. I hope it is not a blasphemy!
