Scientists/ doctors in white coats ?

Hi Dave,

I searched for a while, see if this works for what you want to do. You can white out the black patch on there shirts.Hope this helps

Hi Alex, yes, the second one might work. I had seen the mechanics before, but I was hoping to find some figures in lab coats like the second guy. I'm doing a NASA diorama.

Thank you for your trouble.

Look through HeroClix and HorrorClix figures.  They are O-Scale in size.  A couple of suggestions... look for Hank Pym and Bruce Banner.

Another option is 28mm 'gaming figures'.  These tend to be closer to 32mm high, close to 1/50th scale.  Black Cat bases do scientist figures, a few companies do doctors for zombie style games.  A search for 'modern 28mm figures' can deliver all sorts of goodies

Another option would be to get figures in business suits and use small bits of paper soaked in Elmers glue to craft the coat extensions around the waist and upper legs of the figures.  Then after it dries, use some modelling putty to smooth the transition to the figure and when that dries, paint the white areas representing the lab coats.

I used to do this back when I was in to military modelling and wanted to add overcoats to figures.

Now that's a good tip Andy. The other suggestions of gaming figures most likely won't work. I've been looking at gaming sites, but all the scientist types are zombies or generally too weird. I'm doing a diorama of the NASA Railroad and including some internal building scenes.

I'm guessing that you didn't go look at the figures I was suggesting...

Bruce Banner

Hank Pym

Not weird at all.  It is a breeze to cut off the feet from the base... and you can get these figures for less than a dollar a piece.  Repaint with different hair and pants colors, reposition their arms, or replace their arms from other figures to get different looking figures.

Dave, found one! Check here....

Thanks Todd, yes I missed these, they are great.

Thanks Don, the Russian male nurse is particularly good.
