    1/6 DID D80172 Otto Skorzeny

    Good point regarding non uniformity of the uniforms. Sometimes my OCD takes over 😄 Thanks for sharing the research on the raid itself. It makes for great reading! The photos also highlight the assortment of ammo pouches, helmets, camo and everything else

    As mentioned before, there’s quite a difference between the colour of the Did and Ujindou uniforms. I have been airbrushing the Ujindou uniforms to weather them and give the appearance of fading.

    1/6 DID D80171 WWII German 12th SS Panzer Division Oberschütze – Lio

    I did some weathering on the uniform. I also added some dirt to his face and dumbed down the scar under his left eye. To me it looked a bit lame

    1/6 DID D80160 WWII German Panzer commander - Jager & E60068 Panther Tank Diorama

    Here’s my Jager head sculpt on a grenadier. I’ve changed the jacket, head and boots on the tank commander. I just need his collar tabs to finish. I wanted to buy the Brown Arts tanker boots but ended up cutting down an old pair of jack boots.

    That’s good to know. You would think that with just a little more research and by taking note of the comments on the various forums they would get the best possible results with their figures.

    I can’t bring myself to watch the film. Inglorious Bastards was the last of that ilk that I’ll subject myself to 😂

    Thanks man that helps. Maybe Did should select a couple of customers to review their figures at the prototype stage. Collectors are going to be fairly picky

    Wow, that is a wealth of information. Thank you. I will keep this in mind and will swap out some of the kit to align with the SS uniform. You just saved me a lot of hour’s of research 😊

    I got the Jäger figure. I immediately swapped the head sculpt and used the scarred head sculpt on one of my grenadiers. Personal preference. I need some advice about piping and collar tabs if anyone can help. I’m putting together an SS totenkopf tank crew and grenadiers to go with my Panzer IV...

    WW2 collection - mostly Did & 3R figures plus vehicles etc.

    It was a field of armour kit. I got it for under $400. A guy had lost interest in it and was selling off all his excess stuff. It needed paint and a bit of work to get it running. Still needs some bracing inside the hull but it runs well on flat ground.
