Where are the gloves from? I don't think I've seen them before.

Really fantastic - couldn't you give us a tutorial - it looks like you have slimmed down the body?
And the coat - is it the DID version with cloth added to the collar - or the DML "Johannes" version? I would also like to know about the tire, the wistle and so on? Henrik |

Thanks you very much to all for a pleasant comments!
The Did overcoat was substituted for a better looking DML " Johannes" version, I retained the Did buttons and completely remade the shoulderstraps with stiker cloth painted with green and orange, The DID helmet was repalced with one from 21th Century,slimmed inside and repainted, Modified the Did googles , making the lenses from srcaps and the elastic band with painted cloth. The did "feldgendarme" gorget was substituted for a better shaped dml model, but the did small link-chain was retained because i felt this was thinner than the dml version, The did gloves were modified with leather straps. The tire comes from a Dml "Cyber Hobby "set! Sorry for my bad "Babel fish translated English" 
Sorry again Henrik , but Babel fish does not translate me the word " wistle "

Absolutely stellar figure, weathering, detailing and base! It shows off this scale at its very best. One minor quiggle: I believe that the whistle should be
the straight German type, not the "soccer referee" type, but I might be mistaken.
War is best enjoyed in 1/6th
scale.

Beautiful looking piece of work, Francesco and it's neat to see the use of the old sign post that came with
'Karl'.
Henrik refers to the item in the figure's mouth; whistle = fischio, I think.

Incredible work!!! very life-like. Nice to see the large photos (compared to the print photos from 1/6 Masterpieces). In particular I am better able to see the
beautiful paint work on the eyes.
