Art of War Soviet Collection

Build a complete Eastern Front scene with the Art of War Soviet Collection, a coordinated selection of World War II subjects representing the Soviet Union’s immense wartime effort. Awarded the COLLECTION badge because it brings together multiple models suited to complete diorama scenes, this set offers a convenient foundation for larger historical displays, tabletop settings and carefully composed miniature environments.

Historical Role

During World War II, the Red Army relied on coordinated formations of armour, transport, artillery, support equipment and personnel to conduct operations across the Eastern Front. Soviet forces were required to function across enormous distances and in conditions ranging from summer dust to deep winter mud and snow. This collection reflects the combined-arms character of Soviet operations, allowing modellers to represent vehicles and supporting elements working together rather than as isolated subjects.

Distinctive Appearance

Soviet wartime equipment is recognised for its purposeful, production-focused appearance. Depending on the individual models represented, characteristic details may include compact profiles, sloped armour, broad tracks, simple hull forms, practical external stowage and robust running gear. These functional shapes create an unmistakable Red Army visual identity, especially when displayed with weathering, mud, snow, dust or battlefield wear.

Modelling Uses

The multi-model format is ideal for constructing advancing columns, defensive positions, supply areas, roadside halts and battlefield staging scenes. It can add historical depth to dioramas, period model railways and wargaming displays, while also giving collectors a coherent Soviet World War II group. Smaller scales work particularly well for broad scenes and rail layouts, while larger scales provide more space for detailed painting, weathering and scenic storytelling.

Fun Fact

In Soviet historical usage, the “Great Patriotic War” refers specifically to the conflict against Nazi Germany and its European allies from June 1941 to May 1945, rather than the entirety of World War II.

Available Scales

1:87, 1:76, 1:72, 1:48 and 1:35.

Finish Options

Cleaned Resin Grey, Grey Primed - Ready for Painting, and Historical Base Colour.

Very small details may vary slightly depending on the scale selected.
