I thought it would be simple--was anything but, however! I tried about every possible variable to come up with the above. Regards the rain pattern, I wasn't certain if it would realistically show up at this scale, so left the other pair without it. Feel free to use to use any of this in anywhere you like, and keep up the excellent work!

If it's close enough to cast a shadow, I think the flying house wins initiative.

Bronies are like the Forsworn. Everyone agrees that they are a problem but nobody wants to expend the energy rooting them out.

"That is a very graphic analogy which aids understanding wonderfully while being, strictly speaking, wrong in every possible way."

But your helmet looks much better then my attemps. As soon as I have time, I will post my attemps.

This was an earlier attempt that I almost went with instead.

These were my attemps:

Not bad at all! I came up with that variant myself, when doing up the scheme, but to my mind, it was closer to the classic M1935/40 Stahlhelm than the later NVA variant, which from the front is more conical looking. We were very close with our rain pattern--as you can see, I simply grabbed a swatch from an online photo and tried to match the colors best I could. Anyway, I hope that my efforts prove useful to you!

I did some more NVA Soldiers:

Looking good! Can't wait to see them with more vehicles!
