Been going through this thread and Amazing work done people, truly. Plus nice to see my old username 1/18th scale stuff near the front "axeman" btw.
Well moved to 1/12th scale and been stealing from NECA Marines lol
I am making cloth uniformed, removable Armoured Marines.
Sand off straps and buckles and redoing with cloth straps and working buckles. Yep I can find them for 1/12th scale lol
Hoping to find even smaller buckles and do solution grieves too. For now though dremelled out hollow NECA grieves.
Also strapped the Ab/groin piece up like the real version.
Still have cloth belts to do and webbing straps.
