To the experts out there:
I build an canadian Leopard 2A6M in Braille scale http://armorama.com/forums/216323&page=1. To my knowledge there are no figures in Braille scale for modern canadian tankers. So my question is: is there any other nations tanker equipment that comes close to the canadian stuff? I. e. american? german? a combination?
Any help is appreciated.

What type of equipment are you looking for? If you could narrow it down it would assist.
Jerry cans...use U.S. modern versions...not metal versions...modern plastic versions.
A 2A6Ms could be found carrying up to 15 cases of water. Any type will likely do in small scale.
Try to source a generic modern type of cooler.
Personal weapons...try to find a U.S. M4 Carbine and modify it a bit.
If you have a tank you are using as reference that may narrow down the type and amount of kit that can actually be seen on the turret.

Sorry, obviously I did not make my point clear enough:
I have been looking for canadian soldiers of tank units and as I did not find any my idea is to take tankers from other nations instead. So the question is, tank soldiers of which nation wear similar uniforms/webbings as the canadian ones?
Jason, thanks for your reply anyway. I can use it for putting appropriate stuff onto my Leo.

Hi Dixon,
that is right. Only that they have it 1:35 only and I need some canadian tankers in Braille scale.
Hence my question about acceptable alternatives.

Petr,
He's looking for 1/72 scale figures or something that is equivalent. Not 1/35.
