I read on the forums that you wanted some pointers on the uniform and i thought i'd use my extensive knowledge to share. Hope you don't mind.
Not necessarily a mistake, but Wehrmacht soldiers didnt usually have the Knights Cross on their uniforms. (in some instances they werent allowed to.) but they always had the red white and black ribbon on their uniform. Either as a ribbon. Or at the top button.
The holster should be on the left side. (As far as i know. No left-hand holsters were made. Atleast i haven't seen any.)
The Swaztika ribbon(on the arm. ) needs to be wider.
And when you colour the uniform. Remember that the small lines on the shoulder & cap should be Pink to indicate it's part of the Panzer Devisions.
Also. It would be highly unlikely that any tank crewmember would have an STG-44. If any automatic weapons were distributed to crewmembers of armored columns, it was the MP40 or MP41.
Don't forget the tiny silver rope on the cap. I know it's probably a scetch. But incase you forgot it.
Overall. I like the character and discription. Damn amazingly detailed P38 & STG44 aswell.

Ahh, thanks ^^ But do remember this pic is a year old, and the decision to switch her from SS to Heer was made within this month. The new version will probably look like this. http://www.thehistorybunker.co.uk/a.....og/Panz400.jpg
Do you have a messenger we can talk though? It'd be easier that these comments probably. c:

Ah. But the SS & Heer panzer uniforms looked the same as far as i know. Except there shouldnt be any SS-Lightningbolts on the collar.
And i'm rather puzzled over that photograph. Why does it have yellow 'stripes'... That's really odd :o
Googled it and got this.
"Panzer Uniform: This consisted of black wool hip-length double-breasted jacket and trousers, with skulls on the collar patches instead of Litzen and (until 1940) collar piping in Waffenfarbe, usually but not always the rose-pink of the armor branch."
This is really odd indeed. I've never seen the panzeruniform without its pink markings.
And two more things i forgot to mention about the uniform drawing.
1. On the left sleave you can add a black & silver ribbon. (like in the photo.) with the name of the Kampfgruppe(combat group.) wich the soldier belongs to.
2. The beltbuckle should be one of these. (I actually got that belt & buckle as part of my collection irl.)

There you can also see that the holster is on the left.

Schwere Panzer Abteilung 501-510 (501 to 510) Were the divisions with acess to Tiger tanks. Atleast the one's that used them as their main composition.
I didn't know anything about the 20th Pz.Div and had to wiki it. And i don't think they had any Tigers in it at all. Not even close since it doesen't show 20th Pz.Div to be active at all after 1942. (With the Tiger just comming into service at that time.)
Why not make your own Pz Division. Kampfgruppe Leopard. (Leopard being leopard in German aswell.) :D

I actually did do a coloured one about the same time as this pic http://www.furaffinity.net/view/6950833/
