Here are my scratch build JOPs for my British Paratrooper project.
I used lots of odd items to construct them from a plastic insert found in a led pencil for the tubing, bits of sprues, infantry left over kits ,thread, cloth, milliput and green stuff.
I also redone one of the JOP when one of my gaming mates suggested to portray the canister from the movie a Bridge too Far were the only successful drop canister that was retrieved was loaded with red Para Berets.
