Afternoon All,

Ok, so with all that is going on in the world, I was looking at a new, small project and I think I'd like to do WWII British in Italy using Perrys Miniatures 8th Army in BD Trousers. However, they only do the infantry and not support weapons with long trousers, the rest are in shorts, not a look I want for these.

I guess I could get some green stuff, slap that on and sculpt them, but I'd just bodge it up.

So, the question is, does anyone know of suitable figures for support weapons that would fit in with the Perrys figures?

Cheers

Tim

Don't worry about the use of shorts in Italy.
