Everyone is directly going to call them grimdark so I’ll be ahead of everyone and call them grimdark Cossacks.

For the shading on my infantry, not just the Soviets I am planning on keeping it relatively simple, well simple for me. So I coated the models using MIG Neutral Wash (P222) and let that sit for a minute or so. Probably 5 to 10 minutes, didn’t count.

And then using a wool dauber, just dry, nothing on it, I started rubbing over the model to remove some of the wash and this is the result.

Now I was feeling that this was a little bit too dark, so I picked up the wool dauber and dampened it with some white spirit and gave them another quick rub and then dried them with a hairdryer. You’ll probably not notice the difference in the picture, but in real life it is significant.
