Conversion help
« on: May 23, 2017, 08:21:17 PM »
Im looking to convert some Bolt Action Commandos into Jadotville Irish.

I need some arms with rolled shirt sleeves.

Perry makes 8th army desert rats (ie. Rolled shirt sleeves) but im not sure how they would scale up.

The post below shows that Bolt Action and Perry Germans dont scale very well. So maybe i need another option...

Does anybody know of arms with rolled shirt sleeves that scale with Bolt Action British?

EDiT

And would The Assault Groups SLRs be in scale as well?

The SLRs should be fine.
Arms with rolled up sleeves can be sourced from the plastic USMC set. Slightly bigger but it has been done before to do plastic Chindits..



Cheers
