I've looked and can not find anything on here about converting Epic's post war officer tunic's. What are peoples views and opinions.
On their web page it says, "easy conversion" ie. Collar and buttons.
After a 20 hour day and four hours sleep last night, I really can't be arsed to look any more. Can anyone give their opinion or point me to a thread.. I'm thinking possibly about a heer officer impression, with Epic jodpurs and riding boots...
As always all advice greatly appreciated.
Regards Chris.

Hi Chris

This may sound like a silly question so forgive me if it does but why did you decide to go for the post war tunic rather then the repro wartime one? :?

I think because its alot cheaper to convert?

Ive seen the East German Officers tunics on ebay for £10

Hi.. Sorry to reply so late but just arrived back this morning from the family holiday, so first chance really to reply..
Yes, the reason I was enquiring about converting a modern tunic from Epic was simply cost, I mainly collect British kit but thought it might be nice to have a reasonable Heer loadout, maybe a junior officer.. It says on their (Epic) website "easy conversion", just buttons and collar.. Thats why I was asking for anyones views to see if it was cost effective and was a realistic looking conversion compared to a repro.. Has anyone gone down this route? I'm sure many have but no one seems to have responded yet with their findings.
Any how as always any advice a greatly appreciated.
Regards Chris.
