Heres the problem,Im building a Mosquito boat hobbies upgraded Dumas PT in 1/20 scale,Ive searched the web for about 6 months for US Navy Sailors,my choices come down to 1/24 guys from hsl mouldings,perfect except the crew would be around 5ft 1or go with 1/18 scale guys who would be around 6ft 5or6 your comments or suggestions would be of great help..............thanks Alan

                        Geeze Allan, sounds like an interesting one to me. I would say try to buy a couple of each and maybe try to shorten the taller ones a little and make them a little more life like. If you do that maybe you could get a more realistic crew by having some of varied height. As you already know we all come in many shapes and sizes. Good luck.

                        And welcome to the FSM forum.

                        Big Smile [:D] Im going to modify some 1/18 scale figs,also use some tamiya 1/20 pit crew guys,they should work good being in shorts ,perfect for south pacific PT crews and a few others misc figs,I just have seen too many other beautiful boats that looked strange with out crews. As the project gets along i will post some pics .................
