Dragon Ostfront Winter Combatants

The 1/35 set takes a novel approach in that it represents soldiers from both sides of the fighting. There are two Russian and two German figures – each prepared for the rigors of brutal combat on the “Ostfront”.

To help them make it through the winter, the Germans and Russians are dressed in a variety of winter uniforms, with each item of clothing accurately represented in miniature. The four figures are carefully posed to give a natural appearance, and their degree of sculpting is very fine indeed thanks to Dragon’s well-known moulding expertise.

The soldiers are also outfitted with a variety of weapons typically used on the Eastern Front. Each figure has its own unique characteristics, and they would certainly make ideal subjects for an individual vignette. On the other hand, there is no limit to how modelers and diorama-makers can employ them in a suitable winter scene somewhere on the bitter Eastern Front.
