Dragon DAK panzer and artillery crew, Libya 1941. You can even use the side cap because the DAK version is shown on one of the guys in the art in your post. The tropical tunic remained the same throughout the war in Africa. Headgear and boots may have differed though but are easily changed.

I had the same dilemma and used these guys plus some European tank crew in shirt sleeves painted in tropical colors. For all intents and purposes the uniforms in 1/35 would appear identical except for color and fabrication.

Karl,

Try Alpine Miniatures, they have a wide range of figures. http://www.alpineminiatures.com/35figures.html
they can be found on Ebay or SK Miniatures in the UK.

I have found these figures from Miniart I will order some new heads for them,the 3 figures highlighted in Red.
I was looking at the Alpine figures but only found one figure which was not to my liking.

Miniart figures.


Anyway thanks for all your help.hopefully these will do with a bit of work to them.
