As mentioned
earlier, I ordered some more Under Fire Miniatures last year.
In addition to the Bundeswehr and Soviets, I also ordered a pack of their Rhodesian SAS.
This is how they were supplied, with a Kepi like hat and armed with AK-47, RPD, FN-FAL and RPD. They also come with two optional back packs.
So, the plan is to use them as Marauders for Twilight 2000, with light kit and a mixture of weapons. Now, as it is a lot colder on that timeline, they needed more suitable headgear. In this case, the Empress Miniatures heads with wooly hats.
The heads were sawn off using a razor saw. The neck stump was first drilled with a 1mm drill to make a pilot hole. This was then widened with a 1.5mm drill. The final hole was made using a 3mm drill (which is close to the neck diameter of the Empress heads).
The heads were superglued in place. The backpacks were drilled and a matching 1mm hole and 1mm plastic peg added to the body. This was then used to provide a good fixture between the body and backpack.
