Description
The Uniforms as presented are belonging to a (hypothetically) late war Grenadier of the Großdeutschland Division, engaged in combat near the Elbe River by both Soviet and Allied forces. The Grenadier was assigned as the MG helper for a special force sent to scout and hold a bridgehead separating the Soviet and Allied forces near the Elbe. What little attempt at camouflaging as a Russian soldier is discarded when combat seems imminent. Christmas night finds him back at the barracks, enjoying what may be the final christmas of the war, and generally ignoring his drunken compatriots. The next day, He sets out again, better equipped and provisioned after the previous day's losses and setbacks.Credit to- Tounushifan: the base uniforms, patronentasche, display frame, mannequin, and insignia.
Joeylock: the russian helmet.
Any forgottens: anything else, I satrted this back in 2015, and only recently finished it, so I may have forgotten where bits and bobs came from.
To kick off my exciting new hobby in Pixel-Art, I present a sheet containing the distinct looks I attained at the Ost-West-Kampf reenactment in Oregon last Year. These uniforms will not be entirely accurate to wartime regulations, as they are what I was able to wear as a Reenactor. I do strive for historical accuracy, as do all Reenactors, and some of the sets we end up wearing can often reflect the more unortodox uniforms that may have been encountered, especially late war. I.e. the absurdly brown pants, with a green-grey tunic- with a dark green feldmuetze,and wearing only one rifle pouch set due to shortages.
{EDITED}
Zared-Tregonwells new zelts have now graced these frames, as a replacement for the horrible mess of a zelt I had earlier, as well as his new Y-straps, oppsed to the old Tounushi ones that i had been using.
Also some minor tweaks to collar lines and such.

Not bad, not bad at all. You get bonus points from me, simply for the round eyes, which between you and me, Tounushifan still doesn't do. I think his chaps in Panterria watch too much TV, hence the square eyes.
