Ok, first off, I was wondering if anyone knows of a brown bdu set, or pants. If so, I need a pair of pants. Also, any ideas on how to do an eye-patch for a figure?

OK, you got me!! I am hoping to get this done before I leave for NC in July. I sketched out my plan last night and It should be a quick bash, as nothing too major to do. (No pun intended!!)

I have not been able to locate a set of brown bdus. I tried to dye some sets, and the one success I had isn't really dark enough. Is there anyone out there who can make me a custom set of dark brown bdus or a brown shirt and pants? Thank you.

Ok, I'm not really having any success tracking down a brown uniform. Do you guys have any ideas as to what I can use for Major Bludd instead of a brown uni? Does anyone have any patterns for a jumper or bdu set? My next step is to try and paint the set using fabric paint. I'm running out of ideas!!

TUS had a Halo jumper box set with a brown jump suit. If interested, let me know. In the mean time, I'll look around to see if I have one. It's got 2 zippers running down the front, down the legs. The other option is to dye a set of solid color BDU's with RIT Dark brown, just add more water to get a lighter shade.

How about the TUS British commando set. There are dark brown pants and shirt that are gonna be the closest you'll find. The shirt is a little odd, but you will have body armor over it.

Here is the boxed version. Same uni as the carded set, but a better picture:
