I cut down and sanded a Z Force Captains arms for me and added putty rolled up sleeves. I did'nt have anything weapons suitable for Sid so he's unarmed.

Thanks guys. I was thinking that if I make sure its clean enough detail then maybe the forage cap could be cast. I think I may do it myself though as poor old Steve as a list a mile long!

I would love to do a figure of my granddad in his Cameronian Rifles uniform but have no idea of what figure would be a good base.

Very impressed by the custom arms Humby.

I tried with a pair of mine and gave up [I think whats left of my attempt are in a jiffy on their way to you as its happens...]

I do so hate murdering my Desert Rats for their arms.

Great work -
