Have you seen these new Woodbine Collections being released at Salute?

You really need Africans in Adrian Helmet heads for mid-late Great War (Western Front) and WWII.

Not sure of the uniform details of early WWII, there might be changes. It isn't really my area. I think they were totally requipped by the Americans about half-way the show through. In France in 1944 they looked like this...

Thanks, what I am looking for is the Senegalese garrisons in Madagaskar, but I'll take that to the WWII board.

Soapy, will the French/Senegalese heads be available separately?

[Plynkes]

There already are Senegalese heads available (though the ones linked to here are fixed-head figures). They came out when the first batch of French bodies and heads were released ages ago.  I've got loads of them for conversion purposes.


Here's the first one out of the starting gate, a one-off test Gold Coast Regiment chap to see if my conversion idea was viable...

Good news and great conversions, Dylan.

Nice conversion work. British 'man in shorts' as the base?

[Plynkes]

Yep, you got it (it would be rather surprising if you didn't). 

[Calimero]

@ Soapy, will Senegalese heads in Adrian helmet be available at some point?

[Helen]

Lovely conversion work Dylan. Now for Soapy to venture to Africa at some point!

Cheers,

Helen
