Convert & Paint Winter Finnish Infantry in Plastic [How I Paint Things]

Warlord Games produces an excellent range of Finnish troops uniformed in the lighter tunics seen during the Continuation War, but what if you fancy something a little heavier and caked in snow for those short days and long, cold nights spent holding back the Soviet juggernaut? Turns out it doesn't take much to get something pretty close to accurate using the German and Soviet infantry winter kits!
