Ive just bought a load of PP 15mm Montagnards. I'm looking for inspiration for painting, uniform guides etc. Any suggestions most gratefully received

Easier to show you some photos … but you do have some leeway for 'yards. But generally many wore some type of camo uniform, when working with US SF, etc.

In these photos you see a lot of them wearing the Tiger Stripe camo uniform. Albeit not all … You will also see some including US SF wearing what was called the "Duck Hunter" camo pattern. Looks similar to what some hunters in the US wore when hunting ducks, etc. IIRC, some at least initially, were bought by the US military from Sears catalogues …
