I don't know if anybody has already started this line of enquiry but I would like to see highlanders in the pith helmet for the WW1 middle east campaigns. Looking at it from a totally uneducated (mold creation wise) position can you just convert a WW1 highlander with a new hat to create the new one?

Many thanks
Bill

Would BW22 in the Boer War range not offer an easier alternative?

Dead easy if you go with 15mm Peter Pig - bit trickier in 10mm.

Many thanks for the suggestion Mollinary but the Boer War pith helmet was a distinctively different shape which would be noticeable even in 10mm, it looked more like the Italian pith helmet of WW2.
Thanks again
Bill

What came of all the new Middle East codes that were made a year or so ago? British, Aussies & Turks still no sign.
