    Hi Diego

    Yes you are right, this is an SBS. What I was meaning to say was an in depth SBS, showing how the folds are made to the tools used. Something in depth, but this is wonderful, no complaints here! Thanks very much!(y)

    Diego stunning work and a great SBS, in this instance was it a particular picture that inspired you, or do you decide the outcome as you're cnstructing it. Many thanks.

    Thanks, Ken.
    The idea is actually a combination of some photos, mainly from the rescue of Mussolini and others of the fighting with the italians troops after their armistice.
    I found some curious pics of some prisioners of HG division wearing SS smocks and short trousers in Sicily.
