Just a FYI, fallschirmjager trousers were feldgrau not blue. On the other hand luftwaffe field divisions initially did wear the blue trousers.

Yikes! For a moment, I thought I had painted a customers German paratroopers trousers wrong(I painted a 45 figure Fallschirmjager units pants feldgrau) and he was just keeping quite about it as he's been a customer for years.

Those really look great. Thanks for sharing.

Cracking stuff!

I have to admit I have no clue if blue or Feldgrau is correct, but I'm really liking the blue!

Thanks guys.

In the photo it looks more blueish than it really is (maybe to much light), I used Vallejo paint 105-Luftwaffe Uniform (RAL 5008).

Anyway, it's easier to identify the unit on a game tableboard (when you play mixed with SS or Whermacht units), and it's also a matter of good looking colour at this scale.

An interesting video:
