Custom 1/6 Scale WWII Western Front 1944 – Schütze "Karl"

This a new WIP (work in progress) figure representing a Wehrmacht Grenadier Soldier in the Western Front - France in 1944 armed with a Stielgranate 41, a Kar98 and a Panzerfaust 60. I use all of my spare equipment available to look like a soldier in that year. Was the kind of set that was use by the Wehrmacht in Normandy.

Is a DID body: Karl Stroop (Feldgendarmerie DID 001102) and have mixes of equipment and uniform from Dragon DID and 21st Century.

What I like more in this scale is that I can mess around with figures, equipment and uniforms to have the most possible perfect custom:

Dragon – 1/6 Scale WWII Kharkov 1943 – Grenadier Machine Gunner Otto

This is a Dragon 1/6 Scale – New Generation Life Action Figures Series – Item No. 70010 – WWII Kharkov 1943 – Grenadier Machine Gunner (Schütze) Otto Bonn from the Totenkopf SS Division.

This figure includes originaly a MG42 but I was unable to have one so I use a MG34. Then this goes custom. The equipment was weathered and repainted to look more realistic. including the MG34. He uses a Parka known as "Kharkov Parka" because it was first used by the Waffen SS Division around the Kharkov area. The helmet was painted with snow camouflage. Its a WIP so it will be updated. Here goes some pictures and info:
