We are well aware of Radek Pituch's great ability to populate his model dioramas with interesting and often customised figures.

Rado Miniatures has added three new figure sets, two single figures in 35th scale and the set combined together to make a pair in the third offering in his latest release.
The new twin set is called "After the battle, W-SS Pz.Grenadiere, winter 1944/45" The figures were sculpted by Radek and also the box art was also supplied by this talented modeller also. Here is the source of the figures, this series of photo reference for the RDM35010 W-SS Panzergrenadier in overall/jumpsuit. 20. Waffen Grenadier Division (estnische 1.) preparing to the move out to the front.
The dual kit is combined from two single figure kits that are sold separately if that is your preference, first up the soldier with an MP 44 Sturngehwr assault rifle and dressed in late war winter camouflage.

This figure is cast in light grey resin and comes with the choice of two different headgear choices. Both of them with the steel M43 helmet - one "bare" and the other with a cloth covered camo painted version. He wears a reversible camouflage smock, with the regular gear of the gas mask, canteen and flask, and the ammo pouches for his fast firing gun on his chest in a harness.
Next, the figure with the G43 semi-auto rifle...

Here you see the parts of the W-SS Panzergrenadier with his G43 rifle figure. He wears the winter issue overall/jumpsuit combo, lined with fur inside which you can see from the rear of the figure. He comes with two head options and optional winter gloves. He's portrayed as a young grenadier wearing a fur-lined jumpsuit/overall, but can be also painted as his parka is tucked into the trousers (as seen in some cases at Narva front or in Hungary).
Here are these two figures posed together to show you how they relate to each other, and a little bit more of an in detail look at them in this walk around.
If you like what you see here you can order it directly from Radek in the message box on the Rado Miniatures facebook page.
