Has anyone got any German eagle stencils for marking up off crates and boxes?
Want to get a few marked up for the Luga event in a couple of weeks so if anyone has any or knows where they can be sourced would be much appreciated.
Ive got some I can post down to you if you PM me your address
Unless you're making a box for the Ark of the Covenant, chicken stencils were not a widely used as you might think.
Ammo and ration boxes hardly ever had eagles and swastikas on them. For the Germanic look, it's mostly about typeface (DIN Engschrift/Mittelschrift mostly, Cooper Black occasionally and Fraktur rarely) and paper labels.
Google a few originals and you'll see what I mean
Yeah mate appreciate that, but these are not going to be replicas but more to be easily identifiable as German pieces if equipment for the event.
I remembered this site that does ww2 vehicle stencils and has a lovely chicken - just what your looking for:
