Great work! I've been building some of these myself to build my own "Legend" set.

Nice work VMF! :D

Do these represent real German/period ground crew items? (Sorry, I'm more of an armor guy..)

These are representative of real German ground crew items. I can make some German armor items I just need to see some pictures of those.
