German Fallschirmjäger, sorry for the crappy iPhone pics. I need to finish a couple details and take some better pics. Any suggestions for a chinstrap?

YT, You can try lead foil. Works great for gun and helmet straps, tarps, ponchos and so on. Verlinden 1:16 figures came with a good sized piece for extra detailing.
You can get at craft stores or off a bottle of champagne

You could aslo use a old tooth paste tube as well as one of those foil vacume packed coffe packages
Use a tiny square from a old porch screen for a buckel

Great job on the figures ! Try unwaxed flat dental floss,paint it and it makes great straps.

Very nice job!
I like the head you used for the commander. He looks like he is barking orders to the rest of them.

I just copied the 21st FJ that I had already, well except for the little fine line, I couldn't get those.
