All I can say is WOW! As a huge fan of airborne subjects, these figures are world class. Absolutely fantastic job on them Dmitry! What brand are they?
And does anyone make WW2 Russian Paratroopers in 1/35 scale?
Again amazing job Dmitri!

I love them! Excellent work all the way around, and the poses of all of them really nail the look of pre jump…

Dmitri, these are your own sculptures?

No. All these figures were sculpted by the sculptor Dmitry Shishkov. I paint the figures for box art and sell them.

The sculpting and painting of these figures are simply stunning. Among the (if not ‘the’) best 1/35 figures I’ve seen. I love the unusual poses too!

Absolute showstoppers there Dmitri! The expressive faces really add a touch of character- you also have a real knack for beautifully observed colors and fine detailing.

I love Airborne subjects, and these are fantastic, i.e. the paint, the poses, the equipment.
Aside from a few procedural things not even worth mentioning (jumper holding his reserve for JM)- damned near perfect. I guess the biggest thing is the top pair - chuting up is almost always a two man operation. The bald guy needs to put down the Thompson and the weapon case (why does he have both? :thinking:) and help his buddy with those leg straps. They’re very difficult if not impossible for some people to snag on your own, especially when not jumping Hollywood. All in all an A plus though. How can I get thse figures from you? I"d like all of them.

When I look back on the Special Operations Command Static Line Jumpmaster Course, I still wonder how I passed. This soldier did it well with no time to spare:
