28mm black african heads anywhere?

[traveller]

I need a fair quantity of bareheaded or M1 helmet black african heads for my Congo Crisis project. Anyone know if such are available? Maybe is some Vietnam range? Grateful for any suggestions!

Would also be interested in hearing some sources for my Judge Dredd Simba City Project.

I saw that one but £28 to get just the heads is a bit steep. A pity they do not sell the heads separately

I used Warlord's married Zulu warriors for a Frostgrave warband. There is a huge amount of rather nice heads in one box, though they are not entirely bare head since they have the headbands.

If these would be useful generally then we can do some as an adjunct to our Wild Geese/Katanga line that's in development, but they won't get done 'til back end of 2016/early 2017.

Unless you are aiming for a cartoon negro look, I would just buy the Warlord plastic U.S. infantry for the helmeted heads. They would pass for anybody with two eyes and a mouth. For that matter, if you take the Caucasian nose 'point' off most heads, you will probably have a more realistic 'African' face than most sculptors could produce.

That would be great! If that is possible I would prefer the Gendarmerie beret and Gendarmerie "cowboy hat" + the police cap

Great idea! I have the US Marines, lose their noses they will!
