Flyboy, that is some great custom work! I didn't realize how much work you had done on the Pak-38 until I saw it next to the Pak-40. I might have to pick up a few more from Monkey Depot (I think their still $5.00) and give a Pak-38 a try.

The German Paras look great as do the OMG figures. You said you didn't care for the 21st FJ helmets.....what did you use?
Oh and the German Bio Dude looks very cool!
Keep up the Great Work.

Fantstic job!
The mud on the wheels of the Pak looks very realistic. I really like your tri-color camo, It is one of the better applications I've seen.

The splinter sporting Germans came out very good as well. I think the splinter camo is one of the harder camos to master, and you've done an excellent job.

Your FJ helmets are the real gem of the lot, they look fantastic. I've always shied away from FJ customs, due to the lack of fodder. I was not sure if the standard german field tunic was used by the FJs.

Great job, keep up the good work.

the 4button in the luft blue and also the one with the hidden buttons? and no breast/boob pockets (only if he is realy fat) :lol: :roll:


the FJ helmet is a XD helmet that came with the battle of bulge figs the wide sorta round helmets with the sides trimmed down.

Thats pretty much all it is in real life :wink:
