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

      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.

              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.

                Here is the result ...
