I could do berets, but not alot of the units I am doing wore them in the field. Mostly bush hats, for op's. Berets in the field/garrison. The problems with the figures is the time consuming job of getting the webbing right. The SADF used many different variations to carry their gear, and even used civilian packs in some cases. The Rhodesians used Brit, russian, and Chinese, webbibg and a mishmash of all of them. This is references, and photos are a must. I do heavy research on all my subjects before I even think of messing with the kits. You take a part from this kit and that kit, and so on then get out the putty for the things you cant get a hold of and start. All figures will be heavily modified by the end of the process, and hopefully be far from what the kit was intended to be. This is only the beginning. Then you have to match up paint for the webbing and cammo. I think you get the idea. Cheers!!!!!1
In space, no one can hear you scream. Except the people on the ship with you. Oh, and the Alien.
