[olliecw]

Hi guys, what are your thoughts on this Luftwaffe Normandy Camo SD?

Sorry, I forgot to mention that this helmet is an ET66 M40

Are you planning on buying this?...

I'm not sure about it, it has come up locally and I just wanted thoughts on it

I dont like the look of it. i would say that its a relatively modern repaint and possibly fake decals (why is the paint so neatly avoiding the decals)..
Others on here more qualified than myself may disagree. Any pics of the liner?

From only these 3 photos I say a fresh restoration - NOT a 70 year old paintjob.
Original decals do not crinkle up like this one ( at least I have never seen one do it ) and may have done so from a lacquer overspray?

To me it looks like somebody sprayed it a few months ago.

Thats one you would want to pass on it, postwar painted.

Thanks for the help!

Just so i know for the future, what are the tell tail signs of the paint that gives this away as post war paintjob?
