I wasn't sure were to put this seeing I couldn't find an Italian thread. Does anyone have any clue where I can start to build an Italian uniform of standard infantry, not African theatre.
One places called the history bunker or something does the base uniforms but where would I get insgina, helmet, equipment and stuff like that.
Appreciate any help

Thanks

Pegasus Militaria do Folgore smocks and Samurai vests, one or both of those coupled with Hiki's M41 uniform would have you on the right track.
