GI WWII Helmet Liners
Posted by fripp271 on Friday, March 31, 2006 10:11 PM
Where can I purchase 1/35th helmet liners with webbing? Does this animal exist.  Infantrymen just don't look complete without them.  Empty helmets have to be placed top up because of the lack of liners.  Appreciate the feedback.

Carl:

Here's a link that should help either you can purchase these or use the pic to fabricate your own using thin lead (wine bottle) foil.

 Gregory,  Thanks for the info,  I have ordered a set of the Ultracast helmets.  They are not exactly what I wanted but will suffice.  I believe one of the model manufacturers will come out with a headband that fits into a helmet liner that shows the separation between the canvas band and the helmet ID.  It does'nt appear that difficult as compared to some of the other details they're able to construct.  I believe it would be a big seller because it would show the dual separation between the hard hat and liner which is prevelent in most WWII photos of the period.

Hi fripp271

 If no joy there try Verlinden or Aber they both do helmet liners.
