Have you really never seen early insignia on a late war uniform?

I am looking to swap litzen especially but these were what I had on hand.

Nice photos! I look at how massive the Panther is compared to all those people!

The last one was pretty amusing as well. :lol:

It's really a nice replica :) Built on a T-55 right? And it was this one that was in Belgium in 2013?

You're fully right :wink: Just in 2012, not 2013.

I hope so! But I still need to arrange it with the organizers. Could some one sent me their (the organizers of the event) contacts?

Your smock is off the incorrect Sturm print. You might want to replace that?
Is there precedence for FG to be wearing smocks? Not exactly front line combat troops? I really don't know, that's why I ask.
You could make an effort with the specs, there isn't a good excuse these days for modern frames and lenses. They totally ruin any effect you might have achieved.

Not a terrible first attempt but I would definitely recommend losing the splinter, getting correct glasses, and shaving off the beard.

@johankreig

I have to agree with the glasses, you can buy a pair of Dienstbrille for €20 and have the lenses replaced. They are the correct glasses and easy to find.
