This is the body of Generalfieldmarshall Wilhelm Keitel from DID Corporation. It doesnt really look like Wilhelm Keitel but is a nice figure.

The Helmet is Ultimate Soldier like the boots (both repainted by me). The trousers are Geyper Man and the pistol holster and the Zeltbahn is from Dragon.

The Ultimate Soldier helmet has a new strap made by me.
