So yeah..basically we stick this thing in the ground for a while and kick it around. Interesting to watch tho :) part 3 will be cleaning up and preserving our 'relic' shell in a few months. in the meantime we will sporadically pour some salt over it to quicken the rusting proces.

Denix k98 review!
Переглядів 35 тис.4 роки тому
Whats up guys?! Were back :) and today we have a review about the denix k98: To make a long story short, these are good replica’s for the price. They are ideal for decoration as is thier intended purpose and with a little bit of attention these will also serve fine in displays. They are okay for reenacting but be careful with them because the are a little bit fragile, overall good for the price...

    You don’t want to give away any secrets? Who do you think you are? You look about 10 years old most people in the collection community know how to age Helmets and everybody in the reenacting hobby could do a much better job so get yourself a life little boy.

    7 years late but just wanted to say, nothing some files, epoxy and leverage can't fix! Would be nice though if they took some pride in the product or even looked it over. But still much cheaper than deactivated.

      Thanks! And for the decals if you want to keep the decals and aging as “original” as possible i’d reccomend Just going a little easy on those spots, not brush them to hard and dont try to clean them as much, basically Just being a bit carefull around them when you weather / clean the helmet👍

    Thanks for the great review, this saves me some frustration. I already got a Denix StG44 for a cosplay and it's fine for that purpose. Recently I inherited a sizable collection of blades (swords and knives), among them an original Kar98 bayonet, and I was considering adding a Denix replica to display with it (hanging the rifle on the wall with the bayonet mounted). I guess I can still do this, but hang the bayonet below the rifle, not fixed to it.
