We are posting this because it’s nice to have this kind of information in one place, instead of having to go hunting for it on forums and across social media. Enclosed is some valuable information that may be of some use to anyone working with Vallejo paints on their 1:35 scale WWII figures. See below for images of WWII German Uniforms, including a breakdown of the clothing and equipment pictured.
