Perry Sudan Highlanders Difference?

[redzed]

is the only difference between the Perry's Highlanders the sporran?
And if I remodelled the Black Watch sporran will they pass for Gordon/Cameron Highlanders?

What  coincidence - I was just painting some of these today!  The differences I noticed were the sporrans, and that the Black Watch have the hackle on the side of the helmet.  I chose to get the Black Watch models for my NWF 92nd Highlanders, since they have the 5-point sporran that was used by the 92nd in the 2nd Afghan War.

thanks for that

would the hackle on the side of the helmet be easily removed with a craft knife?

[Will Bailie]

Yes, the hackle comes off quite easily.  The only bit that might need cleaning up is that the side of the helmet will be smooth, instead of showing a seam.  I'll try to post some photos tomorrow.

Sorry - I couldn't resist.  These are all I've painted so far.  6 done, 18 to go!
