1/35 Life Jackets
http://www.ptboatforum.com/cgi-bin/MB2/netboardr.cgi?cid=101&fid=102&tid=1952
We are looking for life jackets for our PT-374 Memorial project. Any suggestions from you modelers out there would be very much appreciated...............I saw the ones from Royal Models, but you have to buy everything else that comes with it, and its pretty expensive.

Ahoy there Frank.
I'm thinking about making molds of some of the life jackets on some of the Italeri PT Boat Crew figures. Unfortunately it will be at least a couple of months until I'll be able to afford the supplies to do that and then to cast some. Maybe someone here would do that for you?
Cheers from Peter

That would be pretty awesome, but no one has stepped up to offer that type of service. If we have to, we will move forward without them.................Thanks so much for your kind offer.

I have seen some pretty good lifejackets made out of Sculpta-clay. Sure would be the cheapest way to go....
