We have played Irish scenarios before... no different than any other pretend scenario we create... It's more about the scenery than anything political or moral. My opinion anyway...

That's not a British SLR (sorry just saying:P)

No its not, but it is the closest available out there at the moment, hence the FN FAL pack mention.

I'd have to do the separate chest piece, but you get the idea:

Very nice work on the cam (and that's an SLR), you should be enjoying Christmas not modding :)

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt.

My level of sarcasm depends on your level of stupidity.

Scale on the cam looks a little magnified ? Like at 110 to 120% true scale or is that just my eyes ?

Loving the Fal.... CANNOT Wait to get some proper 1982 action going :-)

The scaling is ok for the 68 pattern worn during OP Corporate but the colour is more of a 94 pattern.

Find me a decent square of the camo and I'll make it up. :)

I see what you mean about a decent square. Like hens teeth and needs a lot of high end googlefu but here you go:

There are quite a lot of variations between the same patterns, batches and production runs in every single version of DPM. 

Useful article here: http://camopedia.org/index.php?title=United_Kingdom

68 Pattern:

http://www.planetfigure.com/attachments ... jpg.39213/

http://www.army-discount.com/Images/Men ... pm_web.jpg

http://i.nordstromimage.com/images/Stor ... odland.jpg  (close enough)

Tropical DPM
(could be done in a short sleeve order uniform with boonie hat)

https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/73 ... 8fff0a.jpg (might need touching up to solidify the colours and the stone colour filling to a bright yellowish olive like thus http://www.flecktarn.co.uk/dpcft4ua.html )

http://www.paulsmiddy.co.uk/communities ... 936775.jpg

The above 68 patters could be coloured using photo shop to make the browns a bit more reddish and the greens a bit more vibrant, see camopedia link above.


94/95 Pattern
(so close as to make no difference bar the red/olive version of 94)

Smock is ripstop, lightweight jacket (aka shirt) is not.
