The photos below are snapshots from the 3D program used to create the master figure and a colourized version of the original photo. It is not a bad attempt to get the original colours of uniform and equipment right. The leather jacket M1907 could be a little darker and the service dress underneath with more grey, but apart from that it gives much life to these characters.

The 1/35th figure version is without base.

The Shoulder Rat is an option.

It is also possible to add imitation glass lenses to the goggles after painting is completed. Here one could use Micro Kristal Klear, or similar products to produce a clear film within the outer resin rings. Alternatively, one can produce the glass lenses by using a clear plastic or similar. I used the Micro Kristal Klear on the spectacles for German Prisoner bust.

The original photos shows this flashlight reflecting the light, hence it appears very shiny. The few original items that I have seen show them to be semi-gloss green.  The lamp should fit without any adjustments on his chest and partly under the open leather jacket. Trial fitting would be advised, especially when coats of paint have been applied to the figure. One can ease fitting by removing the sharp bottom edge a little. Underneath the pull-ring one could remove some of the resin filling the gap between ring and tunic.  

The flashlight is cast directly onto the tunic with the smaller scale figures (1:35^th and 1:32^nd).
