Uniforms on mannequins with kit

[Jolly Roger]

Here's one I recently finished. It took awhile but I'm very pleased with this one on display

Looks fantastic! Thanks for sharing!
Seems like you used the same mannequin as I did for my officer

Best regards

Finaly finished a display I've been working on for about 4 years. It displays a combat mountain troops officer in the late spring of 1943 in Russia.
The tunic is a 1939 dated M36 feldbluse, that I found through a friend, fresh from the attic in Austria in 2012. The nice thing about this jacket is that it used to be from a NCO, who got promoted. There are still traces of the removed nco-tresse around the collar and the factory enlisted eagle is still under the officer one. The rare thing about this jacket is ofcourse it's original mounted Narvik shield on the sleeve.

I have been lucky to find an officer bergmütze in the same combat used condition as the jacket to go with it!

The trousers are in my opinion, the rarest out there. Rarer then any SS, panzer or paratroop pair. It's a sumpftarn mountaintroop pants that goes with a sumpftarn 3 pocket anorak. You often find the anoraks and their pants in the normal brown/white colour, these sumpftarn anoraks are very rare... and this pants even rarer. It's probably one of the last ones left.

I've equipped this officer with standard combat gear; officer belt, mp40 pouch, 1L gebirgsjäger canteen, breadbag, mess kit, gasmask, zeltbahn, shovel, luger holster, a mapcase and a nice pair of mountain boots.

The only thing missing are a pair of bino's and a mp40
