Summer Azeris

Yesterday I finally got around to photographing these big batch of figures I've been working on. They took quite a while for me to do. I've been too busy. They are meant to represent Azeri soldiers of the Nagorno-Karabakh War in summer dress. I know have about 40-60 such troops.

I didn't customize these figures too much - was great to use the newer RMR figures Rolf has recently released. I swapped a few heads and cut a few pockets here and there. As usual such soldiers require a lot of different camouflage schemes and khaki variations. It's fun, but takes a long time.

Next up - just about finished, probably post in a day or two - is the first in a few quick batch of figures suitable for the Anglo-Irish Wars. A 100 year shift!
