Yannis V. Papadopoulos kindly informed us about their August products in different scales. German uniforms and underwears look to bring a lifetime apperance to dioramas.rnrn

I'm kind'a lost here. Are the underwear and uniform tops decals or paper? If paper, do they go on figures or are they to hang over a clothes line, etc. What are these things?

I think they are not to put on figures. They look to display here and there on dioramas or hang on cloth lines but just informed ETA for the right answer.

It is on paper, so that it sticks to a part to each other, to have both sides. It can be stretched out, the-let at some point, a road on boxes or next to tents.

Wha-a-a-a-a-a-t??
Could be interesting. Are they printed on both sides of the paper, or is the other side blank-white? Also, will they take water/white glue solution well to be able to drape them naturally?

Looks like multiple piece assembly with fronts and backs with additional folded bits in 1/35 for the zeitbahn. The underwear would allow for a diorama of the old song "hanging out the washing on the siegfried line"

As regards the tent, the back side is white. But it can be glued and this one piece, so that if it is open to the interior seems. This helps that the printing is on paper velvet 100 g which can be easily glued with diluted glue for wood. The results are very impressive. Soon we will publish photos.

The underware looks "Schiesser Feinripp" so it should be useable post WW2 and civilian as well. Heck, some of the stuff looks a lot like the gear issued by the Bundeswehr during the cold war...

Oh I believe that. But quite a bit of stuff was produced and used well post WW2 in (almost) unchanged form both civilian and military. Ie. the white sport socks and grey woolen socks issued to me in 1987 where identical to the white socks I used privatly and the grey ones issued to me when working at the local coal mine(1).
So that underwear can be used on a civilian clothing line for a REFORGER scenario in the 70s just as well.
(1) In german mines work cloth was/is issued by the company. That includes underwear.

You are absolutely right.
