Quarantine Workbench: Siberian Troops for the Russo-Japanese War

 Some more troops for my 6mm Russo Japanese War Project.  This time its all Siberian troops.  These are a little different from the European Russians I painted a few weeks ago.  Based on my handy Osprey R-J War Man-at-Arms book, the uniforms for the Siberian divisions had blue pants and green tunics.  Hey it's on a color plate in the book so its got to be right.

There's some artillery and two bases of naval crews that were pressed into service as infantry in the waning weeks of the siege of Port Arthur



Even more Siberian troops.  This will allow me to field all 9 of the Siberian divisions that were in theatre when the war began.  There are also some Russian dragoons and cossacks.  The Russians had 5 cavalry divisions engaged but they didn't amount too much.
