More Soviets, as well as ultra-moderns

Here are some photos of the figures and vehicles I finished last weekend. I ran out of time to post them, but here they are anyway! 

I finished the third squad, and have made good progress on the last two figures I need: assistant PL, and a medic. Here are shots of the three squads.





Here is a little bit of my next/current projects as well. 
I have been in the process of completely reworking my modern US Army platoon in UCP. These include new conversions, and an updated method for the camouflage. I'm about 1/2-2/3 finished with them. They are organized around a platoon from a Stryker brigade (the modern equivalent of wild west cavalry). Before I did that though, I needed another Stryker, so here it is so far! It is by Trumpeter.


And here is a bonus! Another Abrams TUSK conversion. I will add the ERA plates made from some sheet styreen I found which is covered in .46mm tiles, the ERA scales down to .5mm squares. We'll see what comes of it.
