Ok take one sprue of strips (basically a regiments worth) and use a sharp hobby knife to cut all the straw hats sides off and leaving only the front lip so that all have kepis…
Paint them the same, and your suddenly see it makes them look completely different just that small change.
Give me a sec

Yes I get you, I used all mine for just confederates, and each regiment is individually different to the next. Even if only slightly.
Actually made it more enjoyable that way.
Have you tried the Kepi trick yet?

Terrible behaviour from them…. I really dislike that company now.
I have brought nearly nothing from them since 2015, this is it never will touch them ever again.
