[quote=PD Sergeant;2946233]The torso forms are the way to go. I've seen a couple of nice full mannequins on the forum, but the majority of them detract from the uniform they are trying to display. I use armless/headless torso forms exclusively.

I concur with Thomas - I've tried mannequins with and without heads and the latter do it for me. The ones with heads always look effeminate to me and detract from the tunic. Try ebay for them.Comment

Well my mannequin finally got here and it only was $25. It was hollow and I had to add a little support to hit. I filled the mannequin with packing peanuts and then put the board inside for the pipe attachment. Once I got the board screwed into place I then used an expanding foam to tighten it up. Lets just say the foam works well.I once flew in a B-17, B-24, & a B-25. Next, I want to fire an 88 round.Comment
