    Went digging at an antique shop.

    JustinG replied to J`ame's topic in United States Armed Forces

    Yeah, I must have missed that header. Are you in South Eastern Pennsylvania or Maryland yourself? Just curious if this made it to a relative perhaps far away before heading to the antique shop where you acquired it. Best Regards, JustinG

    Small naval battle flag?

    J`ame replied to SirRobertBurnett's topic in Schnellboote, Minensuchboote & Raumboote

    Welcome to the forum.For this to be attributed to the Kriegsmarine I would expect to see a KM eagle over "M" mark on the bunting.

    Came across this at a gun show. I understand all branches of the military used the kriegsflagge but there was no topic available for flags on here. Anyway it is 34.5" x 19.5" with no visible markings and I was wondering what you guys thought... Thanks!

    The different colours are clearly shown here. The darker colour is nearer to what I believe is it's original shade. Some more work needed on it's feet and then I'll see what the final colour should be?

    Started on the darker eagle now and have cut a few corners here and there. The dark paint is wrong and in some places it has started to peel off. Two of it's talons have broken off and there was a big crack on one of it's wings. Now sorted, although I still have to do some more work on it's feet. Gave it a good rub down all over, primered it up and give it a coat of gold paint.

    Good afternoon, Can I have your opinions on this Border Regiment badge, please? It has a "Firmin" makers mark on the slider. Do you experts think it's a genuine ww2 badge? To be honest I have no idea, thanks for your help in advance. Greetings from The Netherlands, Marinus

    Sonderbefehls replied to Sonderbefehls's topic in Art, Trench Art & Paintings of the Third Reich

    A good rub down with scotch brite pad, the eagle is given it's new paint. The colour is wrong for this eagle, it needs to be a lot darker, so I'll use these first coats as a base coat. I'll get some more paint mixed soon. Considering the poor state it was in, being bashed about for years, I think the repairs have come out well..

    It was in a too bad of state Rich, it was crumbling and falling apart.. it needed help. Finally some gold paint applied, rubbed down and being made ready for a coat all over.
