Thanks to Shauny I have a base figure for Volga so now I only need to find Horrorshow to finish off my Guard. I didn't match the exact colours to the original Volga but based mine on this Czech army jacket Image. I looked at Volga's file card and found out she is a Czech member of the Guard rather than russian born.

Here She is. Image

The paints I used were Dark Angels Green, Goblin Green and Snakebite Leather for the camo patterns and uniform. Space Wolves Grey for the cap and Blood Red for her hair.

I seem to recall that Volga's filename was Daina and that's why some people tend to think they are one and the same, but of course there's also Thomas " :storm: " Arashikage and Thomas "Blackout" Stall in :cobra: , and they aren't the same just due to sharing the first name.
Maybe the confusion here goes because the Oktober Guard is a small team, therefore being more difficult to run out of names.

You mean Hasbro being lazy DA? That's how I see it especially since Volga is just a repaint of Lady Jaye and has the same weapons rather than new ones. They couldn't be bothered repainting her pack a different colour either.

I like it Ironblood! Good effort and I must say a very speedy job!

Thanks Shauny! I didn't have exact paints to match especially the hat but I hope it still looks good. It was good enough for Cobraisland.com to put it on their home page so they seemed impressed. I have found Horrorshow in a comic pack but can't do anything about it yet so I may get to finish off my Guard this year.
