WWII Wehrmacht Infantry Uniform

[Capt. Kirk]

I did a lot research on this and I hope I got it all right... ...but I think so.

The difference is in the accesoires ( Mauser 98K pouch, Mauser GW/K43 pouch, Erma MP38/40 pouch, M24 Stick grenade, PO8 Hard shell, Field Binoculars (6x30), Anti-gas cape pouch, Heckler & Koch MG34 Gunner belt pouch).

The classic one

-Infantry collar tab insignia, EM/NCO Breast Eagle, Combat Y-straps, Mauser 98K pouch, EM/NCO Belt & Buckle.

Other ones.

Very nice and good looking decals, I wonder how they would look on an actual minifig.

Great work, as usual!

[Captain Green Hair]

Jeez, are you like a history nut!

[gondortoast]

woah these are awsome your pretty good at this <- understatment

[Capt. Kirk]

20 more... This time with the white lining (called 'tresse').

Note:

The white lines around the collar were there purely to make the uniform look a bit smarter, and as time progressed and with the need to provide a degree of camouflage (and to cut costs) with a standard field tunic this lining was discontinued. This is the same with the different coloured collars that you see.

- In December 1934 the collar changed from the basic fieldgray (Feldgrau) to a fine cloth collar of darker Feldgrau.

- In September 1935 this darker Feldgrau collar was replaced by a collar of dark bluish green insignia cloth.

- Beginning of 1940 this was again to be replaced by a collar of uniform Feldgrau cloth.

But as always there were cases where a soldier managed to retain the darker collar & the tresse through whatever means, which sometimes included privately purchased tunics.

The classic one

- Infantry collar tab insignia + white lining, EM/NCO Breast Eagle, Combat Y-straps, Mauser 98K pouch, EM/NCO Belt & Buckle.

You have a problem that I want to do it right ?

I think it might have been a compliment.

Anyway, I think all of these are really awesome, and I hope to use them sometime.

[Capt. Kirk]

I think it might have been a compliment.

If so then I'm sorry and my apologies to samthelegoman1 (just saw "nut" like a freak, weirdo or some thing like that).

[Sir Norman Ray]

Bloody hell! These are awesome!

Ever thought of doing some British WW2 ones?

Erm....... August 2009?

People commented on the work, you ... did nothing. Before worrying about their posting, worry about yours, please.

Thanks!

[Sisco]

Whoops, it would seem that I'm in trouble... Sorry, Shadows.

Anyways, the decals are exquisite. I love the detailing. The grenades stuffed into the belts is just one of the many great details in these decals.

If you ever come on here anymore, Capt. Kirk, Great Job.

[The Legonater]

I love these, I'm just afraid I'm not sure how minifig decals work: are they just for show? Do you print them off? If the latter, how? Someone please explain.

[Brick Commando]

Great decals Capt. Kirk!

If you don't mind me asking though, would there be any ideas for backpack decals?

Thanks in advance,

Brick Commando
