p-59a Posted June 3, 2019 Share #1 Posted June 3, 2019 What do you guys think of the paint? The liner and chin strap are reproduction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerdragon54 Posted June 3, 2019 Share #8 Posted June 3, 2019 I think the paint is good Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wake1941 Posted June 4, 2019 Share #9 Posted June 4, 2019 Are the pins for the liner also repro? They dont match the patch. Paint looks fine probably overpainted at one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p-59a Posted June 4, 2019 Author Share #10 Posted June 4, 2019 The pins are not correct. Could you explain over paint? It has heavy paint brush marks on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josef Posted July 3, 2019 Share #11 Posted July 3, 2019 Looking over some of the pics you have shown here. Leary of the paint in pitted/chipped areas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josef Posted July 3, 2019 Share #12 Posted July 3, 2019 As to brush marks. Soldiers used brushes to add subdued or camouflage paint to helmets. Sometimes even just a rag dipped in paint and wiped over. Good question, one I got an answer from my dad when I asked this same question decades ago.
