Show your mannequins!

Very good stuff so far. Heres two of mine, a USAAF 8th Airforce officer c.1943 (non-regulation boots and gloves) and a British Infantryman c.1941.

Douglas great display dummies you have there... If you don't mind me asking where did you find them?.. Cheers Terry.

Great display - any photos of the back of the full mannequin ?

Its far beyond a great display.
Its outstanding, in my opinion.
I love the way, how the busts are inserted on the wall.

Superb

Cheers

Hi Terry, the dummies are home made (wooden posts padded with cardboard and newspaper), with polystyrene heads from ebay.

your center picture is crooked

just kidding of course. Heck, I even like your floors!

Where did you get your display cases on the left there? Did you build the room and do the drywall yourself to accommodate the busts?

The picture has been replaced by an Ikea horizontal cabinet. I bought 7 tall cases, one corner case and a double case....all matching from Buhler. I did finish the complete basement by myself, and decided to include the cubbies. I might also add that I finally picked up the blanket for my infantry boy on the right.

I included a pic of 3 tall cabinets, all are separate but I put them together to make it seem larger. I haven't started on the Ikea cabinet yet, still thinking about what to fill it with.

Here mine volkssturmer.

looking good but dry to age the bandage a bit and make it dirty/worn. also some dry blood on the face would help to complete the look.
