Thanks guys the tracks are from the kit The Only Thing I Dont Like About Them Is They Come in Sections I am A Glutton For punishment I like the indy tracks like the ones on my king tiger I am hoping to get my paint mojo back soon
I was on the ak interactive sight the other day and they have a great panzer black uniform paint set and washes and a book went to order it it came out to something like 45 usd then came the shipping 65 usd no way hoping some one in the us stocks this or mig comes out with it I have seen the Andrea black set any one use this

Thanks for the comments guys the boss really bring this build to life does any one have a color shot of the commander to see what color the trim on the hat shoulder bars and head phones and cables I know the uniform is black but is his jacket leather I know you posted this some time back, but did you find your answer? If not, the first thing you'll need to decide is what branch of the service you're dealing with. The jacket could be leather or cloth. It's hard to see in the pics, but the cuffs look like they're wool on the coat. If so, it's probably a winter white cloth. The standard piping for collars, hats, and shoulder boards was pink for regular armor units (I can't say for sure if this carried over to the SS units).
