Need help with Luftwaffe breast eagle

**Nathan5kdp** · 07-13-2011, 10:15 PM

Is it original ? And does anyone know a good source for reference of characteristics of original Luftwaffe eagles?

This one is bad sorry. Soft details to the eagle & swastika and incorrect backing.

Many good eagles can be seen on the forum.

Cheers, Ade.

Any books or sites? What do you mean soft details? I understand how the swas looks a little thin.

**Nathan5kdp** · 07-14-2011, 03:40 PM

Can you show me correct backing?

**Adrian Stevenson** · 07-15-2011, 10:24 AM

The back should not be covered like that. The embroidery should show through. Compare to here:

Compare with this one..

Thank you guys! I'll remember the no backing rule on this type of eagle. The only thing I don't understand completely is the "Soft Details" you speak of.
