I am looking at making 28MM conversions to portray the Welland Canal Field Battery (operating as infantry) during the Fenian raids in 1866. I would use Perry BIF figures but I would need heads wearing the 1860's Royal Artillery Busby. The RA Busby is a narrow, cylindrical fur hat with a red bag hanging on the right side and a plume on the left. Does anyone sell the appropriate head model?
thanks

Skytrex has some heads that may be suitable for conversion

The Perry and Warlord games hussars have a series of heads and one option is a busby, but as I recall they are more squat and round that the RA busby

Thanks, there's one Skytrex that might do with some conversion!
