| Russian General |
I decided to experiment a little with the Warfare range in order to produce some distinctive command vignettes for the Great Northern War Russian Army.
 |
| #3 The brigadier |
These pieces were actually to be a gift for a friend of mine. I wanted to make bases tell a bit of a story and use complementary combinations of models on each.
 |
| Flamboyant Marshal of Russia |
I decided to do three vignettes. The first is of a very flamboyant Marshal, perhaps Sheremetiev . He is accompanied by a senior officer in cuirassier armour and an infantry officer from the Semenovski Guard Regiment.
 |
| The base is larger than the normal I use for vignettes |
The second is a general waving his troops forward and accompanied by a Semenovski mounted senior officer and an infantryman from a red coated regiment.
 |
| Lots of water.. perhaps the Pripyet Marshes? |
The last is of a brigadier in a distinctive white uniform. I will feature the second and third vignettes separately and focus this first post in the series on the flamboyant Marshal.

| Casualty model from WLOA14 |
Check out WLOA40, 42, 44, 48, 50, 52, 54 and 56 for a great selection of officer and cornet types to convert or use 'as is' for senior officers of most armies of the period.
The water effect was achieved using my favourite medium Marine Varnish. The drum is from the accessories pack WLOA930.
The infantry officer is an unreleased Russian.
