Wow...Thanks Dan/Jim. Those are some nice lids. I guess the majority of Winter camos we would see are probably relics. Just a hunch.

Thanks again for posting.

We also buy and trade your items and full collections!

Nice, interesting helmets.

I used to like snow, until I had to work outside in the snow for a couple of winters.
The thought of having to fight for your life in those conditions...

Anyway, here is my relic again,

Supposedly from the Ardennes, but the eastern front seems more likely to me.
M40 ET66 with brass rivets and eagle delete.

Nice. Would be awesome if from the Buldge

Hi Guys,
This is my first (I hope not a last one) winter camo M40 Luftwaffe helmet (with a battle damage?). I don't know too much about background. I bought this 1 week ago, and the guy who owned the helmet before me he bought this in Novgorod area last year.

Nice seeing these winter camos --- after selling mine to a certain member here I suddenly got the urge to get another... but relic this time

Will post when it arrives. Hope to see more winter camos posted!

Battle damaged winter camo recovered in Karelia. M35 DD ET 64 with several layers of different paint underneath the winter camo, camo is paint not whitewash and has not adhered properly and therefore flaked somewhat due to the smooth overpaint underneath. The white is almost a tan/pinkish hue due to age
Named to a "Kaltenbach" and otherwise relatively complete... they come nicer in relic condition but this one's got lots of character and things to like, in my eyes at least. The battle damage is pretty heavy but not too distracting... definitely seen some action this one!

Can't seem to manage shooting proper HQ photos these days (out of battery on my Canon, so these are quick ones with phone), lighting and several other things are factors this time of year as well, but you get the picture.

Tried taking a few better ones just now but the battery gave out --- I'll try to do it some more justice later.

A few better shots

That's a nice one!. Love the paint and damage and the fact that it is complete. Is this a new pick up?

My relic winter camo is paint as well and has also turned a pinkish hue from the rust bled through.
