These figures are sculpted and painted by the same guy... Alexander Zelenkov, the owner of Stalingrad company. Mario[/quote] Thanks, Mario, Does Mr. Zelenov show somewhere about his techniques? He has an inspiring way of bringing his figures into life!

Not that I know of. He's reluctant to show any in-progress photos of his sculpts, and I haven't ever seen the painting process. Mario

Hi guys! I use Vallejo Acrylic for faces and leather details and polyvinilacetate tempera (made in Russia, but you can use just a acrylic) for clothing. Work with tempera and acrylic is just so common that I can't say anything more at thousandths words that have said about it. In fact I rate my painting job very modest. May be I can make in sculpt anything interesting, but not in painting. Look here and you can see REALLY good painting: LINK Some good painting VIP you can see on Planet figure: LINK And very many interesting and useful articles about painting you can find in this magazine. Highly recommended. LINK Good buy!

These new figs really set the bar higher for all the resin sculptors!! I already have the eastern front refugee set and now need to buy this new one and also the set just released a few months ago with more German refugees. I like to modify my own plastic figs but sometimes I get lazy and let Alex do all the hard work! LoL J

Dear Sir! Most grateful, thanks. You are a master for sure! Looking forward to see more. Enjoy your weekend, P.

This is another extraordinary figure set to say the least! Keep up the great work, Stalingrad! —mike

amazing sculpting and equally amazing painting

Alexander, your figures are among the best available. You are one of the few sculptors that gets the anatomical proportions correct, especially from the waist down. Excellent work!

I have just purchased set S-3075 and S-3071. MAGNIFICENT SCULPTING. hope my painting skills can do them justice
