Yes- just the same way in did in 1943 !
Well, after consideration of my (total lack of) ability in the painting department, I've gone for the splinter cover with inner tube band.
You've got nothing to ein, zwei, drei, vier
It could have been done far better, it had a all star cast too including Kurt Jurgens, Rod Steiger, Richard Burton & Robert Mitchum, Burton does look a little like James Coburn
It seems Steiner has blown a tank up all by himself!

In the original, Kruger had a couple of tank destruction badges.

Im far from being a stitch counter but am a bit keen on details so ive never realy liked these Sturm stonewashed splinter covers as they lack the side seam that was evident on all WW2 splinter helmet covers(or so i believe!!!)
Like the paint scheme on the lufty helmet. Considering it for my new para helmet. Is it sand and bands of brown?

Bought it as it is so not exactly sure what the colours are but base seems to be a sand colour with very faint bands of brown oversprayed on top
Since imp revived a year old topic, here's mine
Wearing that at Haggard, David?

)
