Ok um not sure what exactly it's called but im looking for an army scarf or a small piece of one for a custom and i didn't want to use the one that came with ROC desert viper cuase i wanted it to look more realistic. Anyone know where i can find one or has one?

yup, the ones you always see comanders where in movies, i think duke was wearing one in rise of cobra

for the Shemagh look, a night creeper head gear piece would work i think combined with the add on piece from Beachhead 2 pack with the maskless face. a little hobby knife work and some paint and i think it could work..

Maybe use the keffiyeh from one of the Indy figures Cairo Thugs or Swordsman?

In this case what i would do is cut a square of thin paper (those brown, "John Wayne" paper towels you find in public restrooms works well) Paint it white and do your keffiyeh pattern in some kind of watter proof ink.

Mix up some watter and white glue, soak your keffiyeh in it, kind of squeeze out the excess and then put it on your figure, forming it as you wish. Let it dry and you should have a removable scarf that wont hamper articulation.

I use cloth from the Spy Troops figures that came with the Ghillie suit/camo. I add super-glue to it, to get it to lay flat... Here are some examples:

-Non Removable (attached to flak vest):


-Removable:


Just cut to the size you want, tie the knot, add glue and use tweezers to shape (or needle nose pliers)... I like the way it comes out.
