Painting M1C Paratrooper Shell

This paratrooper shell is painted with a paint based on the shade used by the US Army between 1936 and 1944. Matt by nature, it will tend to take on a satin sheen with time and wear, just like original US M1 helmets.

Texture M1C Paratrooper Shell

The shell of the M1C paratrooper steel helmet has a so-called "cork" texture to be as close as possible to period models. This coating helped break up the soldier's silhouette and reduce sun glare.

M1C Paratrooper Shell

The M1C helmet shell is the American paratrooper's essential piece of kit during the Second World War. It fits over the paratrooper version of the M1 liner and protects the soldier from debris, sun and rain. But it also serves him in everyday life, as a basin for shaving or as a cooking pot when times are hard.
