Hey guys,
inspired by the Chaosium CoC RPG Adventure "Escape from Innsmouth" and a Delta Green short story about the same event ("Once more from the top", by S. Glancy), I started to collect figures that would be suitable to play through the events described on tabletop.
Time has past, and though I still have lots of stuff to collect (haven't we all) I'd like to start working on the figs.
For the US marines I was adviced to buy these figs by Renegade:
as these uniforms closely resemble those that I would need - or so I have been told. I'd need to paint them up as US Marines in 1928, and it's rather difficult to find info on the uniforms.
My question: I'm looking for info:
- on the regular uniform
- on how these uniforms might look with some kind of winter camouflage added (If that was - common - practice by then, and if there's a difference in look, of course).
Pictures, photographs, Vallejo colour names, etc... any and all advise is much appreciated.
I'm not looking for 100% historical accuracy, but I'd rather not paint them totally wrong.
k.
