Goumiers

These will become part of my 7e Tirailleur Marocain

The group together



The Retrokit figures are very basic (think 1970s Airfix quality), quite brittle and difficult to clean with little surface detail. Friend of Foe are just excellent, I deliberately chose poses without helmets armed with rifles (LMG teams aside). I modified some figures to suit what i wanted as I want them to be useful as Moroccan Tirailleur or Riffi or Goumier depending on what and when we`re playing.

I don`t really have the skills, patience or eyes to do Berber robes
