How about a Gladiator Luftschutz Helmet...I would also add a canteen, breadbag, mess-kit, a bedroll across his chest...
Those are some the items that Volkssturmmaenner were expected to provide themselves...I like your project, you can be creative with this one...

Absolutly good ideas glenn i will give the mannequin a mess tin the breadbag is already on the back of the mannequin .

Looking forward to more photos as your Volkssturmmann is equipped for the Endkampf...
A Potato-masher grenade tucked into the belt is another suggestion...

A sloppy M-43 or Helmet , but without insignia . Also a scarf can fill out the look . Nice job

I really like this idea! It gives you the opportunity to work out of the standard displays of the Heer LW and KM! You can be very creative as said before!!! Well done!!

Would be cool to see a Panzerfaust with this display, also maybe an M-43 with no insignia. Definitely like where this is going! Keep up the good work my friend.
