I love all these late Victorian era Playmobil toy soldiers !!! ... 


Olki ...

After reading Cheng's comment, I just had to compare your sailor to Garden Wargaming's sailor.

Did you really cut the brim off of a peaked cap, or did you use the kid's sailor hat from Playmobil's Vctorian theme?

see attachments

[olki]

I did cut off the brim of the peaked cap, the children´s caps are so hard to get

[olki]

More soon.

Hopefully you do not mind that I put them here.

Not at all, not at all! Keep ´em coming!!!

I like them very much!!

but no worries Olki..those children's caps are also a wee bit too small for the oversized 'Playmo' effect....(still, I did make 2 such sailor caps from children's caps after Richard told me this)

Turks or Egyptians
