Would anyone be able to make...

I'm not entirely sure if I can ask this in this part of the forum, so if it needs to be moved let me know. I am looking for someone that would be able to make a custom Russian Woodland Reed pattern uniform like the one Elite Force made. If you know anyone that would be able to do this, or can do it yourself please let me know. I've been looking for the Elite Force one for a very long time now, and my patience is beginning to dwindle. Lol. I really need this uniform to complete a WIP that is finally coming to an end. There's only a few small puzzle pieces, and this is one of the biggest. Thanks!

Re: Would anyone be able to make...

What you could do, and a lot of people have done that, would be to get some unprinted fabric and print the pattern onto it and sew the uniform yourself, other then that, I think there is a section here for custom made stuff. Here is the link, you should post this there I guess:

Re: Would anyone be able to make...

Not sure what Elite Force Russian figure you are talking about. If it's bbi's Elite Force then the only modern Russian they produced was "Kretchet" the MVD figure dressed in the blue tiger pattern with a green tiger pattern vest; they also produced for the cheapy play market sold at TRU's a set with a green tiger pattern shirt and trousers with velcro closures all pretty simply done, I think there was a vest of some kind as well. From what I can recall these are the only other modern era Soviet/Russian uniforms that have been mass produced besides Kretchet: The Ultimate Soldier/21C (*note that the titles are 21C's & not necessarily the correct id for the uniform or to whom it was issued): 1. Soviet Spetsnaz Uniform Set contains what appears to be the Lightweight Summer Field Dress as used in Afghanistan circa 1986; 2. Soviet Sniper Unform Set (also a boxed figure): M88 KGB/ MVD "Spetsodezhda" camouflage was actually developed for the Soviet Border Guards also used by the MVD - a bit heavy material but pretty good; 3. Soviet Paratrooper Uniform Set contains the Butan/Moldovan Woodland camo, well done but super rare/impossible to find; Armoury: Modern Russian Paratrooper dressed in the "Dubok" VSR or Schofield pattern uniform - I think this may be the one you are talking about but it's not the reed pattern, I don't think anyone has released a reed pattern. The boxed figure and loose uniform and other parts are readily available for this figure for example this listing on eBay for the loose uniform: Armoury 1/6 Russian paratrooper modern camo uniform - eBay (item 170500381587 end time Aug-13-10 19:38:03 PDT)

There are a few other bits and pieces of uniform, camouflage suits, etc. that you can use to bash modern Soviet era or Russian Fed. military. Just scour DiD, DML/Dragon and others in their WW2 Russian lines and you'll find some. Apologies if I missed any.

Thanks Zero Delta. I'll move it there.

And Furious Genius, I was referring to the cheaper production set that Elite Force made. I have multiples of all the other Russian Uniforms by TUS and Armory. This is the only one that I need! Thanks for all the help!

That carded Russian Tigers set is pretty hard to find, even way back in 05 when it was somewhat recent. If you're still looking for a reed pattern uni and not tigers Krechet has some uni sets for auction in the open market<ebay auctions listings.
