Here is the long not-so-awaited second part of my Historical Minifigures. This time, using pieces from the Indy KotCS sets, we see dictators, adventurers and most of all, Russians. :wink: Here it is...

Lenin:

Despite all the decals I draw, I really love a purist solution to minifigs more than any other, and these are all quite nice, even if I did have to look up Giovanni Belzoni. :tongue:

Nice job! :sweet:

Nice, I love to see creative uses of pieces like that! Funny thing, after seeing Indy 4 my sisiter mentioned to me how much that general looked like Putin... I guess other people thought so too!

Nice Gorbachev, too :thumbup:

Thanks. Yes, I agree. Decals are nice, but it's always great to see what you can do with existing torsos. It's good to know that these minifigs are educational too. :grin:

Nice!!! :sweet: Castro is my fav. :laugh:

Thank you, Castro would be my favourite too :sweet:

Great work there, TinyPiesRUs! )

Trotzky and Putin are awsome.... Надо бы сообщить куда следует.... ) :tongue:

Great work on others too, but I guess that Lenin could use a cap and a vest coat.... )

Oh, yes and Stalin is great too! )

Спасибо, товарищ! ) (Thank you, comrade!)

Мое почтение, :sweet:

great work, although i dont know half of these famous people in history. nice use of a tire for a russian hat!

The tire hat would be Italian because Mussolini was an Italian dictator who sided with Hitler. NOT a Russian. Most of those "Russians" would actually be Soviets too. Sorry if you find me rude.
