Panzergrenadier Lieutenant

My new favorite figure…Panzergrenadier Lieutenant. I wanted to give him a camo top but ran out of light green, oh well.

Very Nice mate,very nice indeed :D

So where are the awards from?

Like this a lot mate & don`t suppose you have another officer torso spare??? ;) :D

The first dio set is Bloody great even though simplistic. The table is great & where is that crate from BTW?

Again mate Very nice :D

Just done a head for a custom German officer though don`t have a Officer torso/figure :(

Thanks, but he still needs some paint work…especially his buttons; I just tired of painting today. Verlinden makes the medals and they are for a 120mm figure, but I think they look fine on a 1/18 figure. I included a link below to a online store that sells them (They are on sale buy the way!) :D The crate comes with a Disney Exclusive Raiders of the lost Ark German soldier. The figure really sucks but the crate is a great accessory for any diorama, it has a great Wehrmarcht crest on it. As far as the officer torso sorry I don’t, but I will keep my eyes open for you :wink:

Red, thanks for the kind words! :D The head on this figure is from the MG-42, I took his helmet of and filled in the hole with putty and painted, i'll post some pics ofthe back of his head. the medals are brass and are not painted, but If you are into custom figures I think they are well worth the $7 and a little time. :D
