                        civillian 1/72 figures

                        Question [?]
                        I'm trying to put together a diorama in 1/72 scale of a UN M-113 APC guarding a polling station and have come into the problem of how to acquire/make civillian figures in this scale.

                        I've seen very few random figures in the 1/35 scale and nothing of this kind in 1/72. I can't effectively cobble together a dozen or so civillians from soldier figures because of problems like military headwear and clothing, gender (not many females available) and similar problems.

                        Has anybody out there managed to overcome this problem? I'd love to hear from you how...

                        Have you had a look at www.72scale.com/? Dedicated to this scale, you might find something there.

                        And Preiser indeed has loads of suitable figures, yet most in H0scale which is slightly off, but you might get away with it. At least for perhaps a few birds, dogs or similar accessories.

                        Cheers,

                        Presier does make 1/72 scale figures although most of there products are HO(1/87). The do make civilians in this scale. See link.

                        CP models produce civilians in 20mm scale... very nice they are too.

                        Preiser is the way to go. Best figures bar none.
