What do you guys think? Please voice your opinion.

1. New or original (WWII era paint or repaint)?

2. Has the liner been redone?

3. Who made the chinstrap?

4. Any other opinions would be great.

Green on the outside, black on the inside. Not a good sign in my opinion. And is that feldgrau and rust on the inside of the dome?

its certainly two differing colours inside. And as far as I can see, one of the heads of the rivets lacks the same paint as the shell.

Hi Bob, that black paint on the underside of the skirt kills it for me. I would pass.

Cheers, Ade.

Two of you have said the paint inside is bad. Why?

I am a newbie.

paint should be field blue grey on the inside as this was the color of issue helmets,,someone at some time has painted the inside skirts black,inside looks to be Luftwaffe Blue-grey,,,and camo'ed the outside,sure signs of tampering at some stage...
