Kitbashing USMC out of US Rangers and other Bits?
Hi all,
I have an extensive force of US Rangers and US Winter infantry.
I have a box of Rangers spare from a mystery box.
I was thinking of using them to kitbash some USMC. I u drrstand that the USMC kit is quite old.
The Rangers are wearing Parsons jackets and HBT trousers, but the majority of the jacket / shirt is covered by webbing and it seems the Parsons jacket painted green would work as a marine shirt.
I am thinking king of using the helmet-cover heads from the winter us infantry, Rangers bodies, and then a mixture of arms from across various kit but also leaning on the German Grenadier sets to try and get some rilled up sleeve arms. British 8th arms may also be better but I do not have any of these.
How does this sound? Has anyone tried something similar?
I want to basically make approx 24 men that look visually distinctly to just more US army or Rangers.
