      Here you are:

      German ebay...already going 286 euro.
      Thank you that's important, the seller doesn't claim it to be 'original' ww1 camo paint, maybe the gent is just unsure always read the descriptions, so imo its a reproduction camo.

        Regardless of the period it is creative.

          The pattern is inspired by a purported original which appears in one of Ludwig Baer's later German-edition books.

            David K. has an original and another is in '85 Baers page 65 (Powers).

              Thanks for the info and the pictures, guys
              It sold for 338 euro.

              What to think of that helmet with deathshead on it?
              Did they really exist or is it some kind of fantasy?

                The red backed MG insignia is available as a decal by a supplier, at this time the only thought I have its copied from 1920 Polish army mg units that faced the Russians. see this thread:
                http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...ad.php?t=78371
                The one posted from the book other than the one I mentioned for me at this time its a copy unless I'm corrected by Mr Kittler.

                The skull helmet personally I've never felt comfortable buying one try this thread:
