Question for the keen eyed.
« on: July 24, 2020, 12:16:11 AM »
Thinking of converting some figures but can't make out a certain detail.
The Perry Miniatures BIF range has figures in Home Service Dress which was also used in India during the Mutiny
But are these figures wearing two white cross-belts or is the one running from right shoulder to left hip actually the (also white) haversack belt?

Panic, Chaos and Disorder. My job here is done

I am pretty sure that's the strap for the haversack.

From memory, as I've painted some, it is the haversack strap

Figures are ordered and a good friend of mine, Liam, is printing the 3D bits. It will be a bit of trial and error and we might end up having to print several sizes of the bits.
But I now have about a hundred Imperial Romans to finish first.  lol
(BTW thank you Kenneth for compiling and delivering my order so quickly)
Obviously I meant Keith but the reference to Infamy, Infamy was too much to resist.
