can't you make one with milliput ? take a 1/16 scale one, centre on the head and fill out(built to fit) with milli. i have never owned that scale mate.

Shaun -was this the sort of hat you were after? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/21st-Century- ... Sw0fhXjeO0 7 left at £4 free postage from Hong Kong

The piece of landscape is shaping up quite well, though I do say so myself. Waiting for the base coat paint to dry at the moment.

Nearly dry

Richard, as always looking good.

Nice Richard!

looking forward to see the little dio finished

I've had a few mishaps and disasters on the way. First, when applying the static grass, I forgot to change the grill on the applicator so got a huge dump of grass instead of a sprinkle. At the same time, I forgot to switch the power on, so no static. Then I discovered that my trial of using filler combined with PVA to set hard and stick everything down was a failure. The "bits of rock" failed to stick, so I tried again with just PVA, which has worked before, but this time for some reason ,the PVA is refusing to harden. I gave up on that and have stuck them down with UHU, which, fingers crossed, appears to have worked. This is the current state of affairs. All I need now is the gun crew to arrive from Hong Kong. Ideally i need some more ammunition boxes, but can't find any of a suitable size.

Richard, Sorry about my failure to acknowledge Saturdays reply to my question any earlier,
And the simple answer is No, as I am looking for a 1/18 "Schiff" Side cap/hat, Whereas the E-Bay site is selling a "Field Cap" and no I am not being pedantic there really is a difference Thank you for doing the search.
Shaun.

Not a problem - I thought that was probably the case. Can't recall ever having seen a figure in 1/18th with a side cap. You can get Verlinden 120mm scale ones, but they are nearer to 1/15th scale.

would a 1/16 scale head with the cap on it look outta place jarn ?
