MG gunner 1 in winter

[Grimgork]

Hallo Grimgork. I love the pics of the "inner workings" of your guy. Like my set ups too. Duct tape, electrician's tape, old towels for padding, etc. When it is all put together it comes out great!

Right, it doesn't matter how it looks like underneath With the right tools it easy to built up such a display.

Fully agree, impossible to do this with mint stuff with no character. This is exactly what a gunner must have looked like

Thanks Your are right´but used winter camo clothing is harder to find than the minty stuff imo.

This is one of my favorite displays I have seen posted on here, it truly looks like he walked right out of a period photograph and into your yard. Your attention to detail in acquiring pieces that all blend together with the right amount of wear is to be admired and makes a wonderful display. Please keep us posted on your progress with the re-painting and the second gunner, can’t wait to see the finished result.

Thanks a lot. And I will keep you informed how the project continues. Maybe you all can help me I am still looking for:

- wintercamo helmet
- wintercamo gasmask can
- wintercamo mg ammo box

I did not know that such advances had been made in house protection in Germany!! Hope the neighbours were away!!
Excellent super quality display and tastefully done. Great to see private collectors in Germany not afraid to show off outstanding pieces.

Nearly 2 years later we had a snowy day and I brought my guys outside together with their equipment and stuff to arrange a little display for some minutes.

Here is the result ...
