I need some scuba divers...any help?
« on: January 25, 2012, 09:53:39 PM »
Hi all,

I've got an idea in mind for a cool scene that requires a few scuba divers...you know about 5 of them... ;) but I have fairly specific needs and I'm not sure they are even out there.

I'm looking for divers who could actually be in the water... Not people carrying suba gear...or frogmen with tons of weapons... Just scuba divers.  In an ideal world they would be in dry suits...but that seems unlikely.

So far I have found two at reaper that look good but would need some modification for my purposes.  Does anyone else have any idea where I should be looking?

Any help is apreciated!

only aware of the reaper ones....I have a few old 20mm ones but have never found anything larger that is suitable.

Cripes. I wish it wasn't out of stock. I'd get thirty of them just to make a Bond diorama.

I love the new frogmen...but I'm looking for divers who are still diving...and are not soldiers.

The reaper ones are the best option so far....but there just aren't enough of them...I wonder how they would scale with the plastic ones.....hhhmmm.

Maybe I'll try to do it with hard hat divers...though its not my preference.

Thanks for the advice all...keep it coming
