I am converting a number of 28mm civilian figures to combat types. This includes both men and women. I have plenty of weapons to give them but most of them have no packs or pouches or belts for their ammunition. Too many women figures are made without even Purses . I have used plastic figure spures To scrounge Packs and belts.

Does anyone know of a source for purchasing pouches and packs or belts that I can attach to my figures make them a little more realistic?

Thanks much.j

Try some of the E-bay sellers selling 40k bits. All of the plastic imperial guard figs come with this sort of stuff and I've seen lots for sale frequently.

Of course you may need to file off and aquila or a skull!

Get yourself some 2-part epoxy putty and make them. It's really not that hard.

The Wargames Factory Zombie Vixens has purses, the accessory sprue on the Apocalypse Survivors has tons of pouches.

Thanks much for the good leads. I forgot about Bolt Action. Ordered a bunch. Tom, I am not much (if anything) of a sculptor. I can convert by removing and attaching things. I will check ebay for 40k. There are only two purses in the vixen set, but they are nice. Could use a dozen. I have a few Bolt Action sprues. See picture below, second row for some examples in use.

Richard, thanks much.

For belts I use sheets of pewter, even you can reuse from a bottle of wine!
Good luck
