MP-40 Pouches Weathered & Ready

[FIVE]

Here they are completed guys.

Thanks to iconoclasta_88 for the great tutorial / instructions!

I went about mine a bit differently though.

Of course I removed the small pouch and moved it over a little bit and then sewed it back on.

I cut styrofoam for the insides so they'd keep their shape.

Then, instead of dying them like iconoclasta_88 did, I spray painted them black using a cheap "off brand" spray paint.

They dried REALLY fast.

Next I dunked them a big vat of warm water.

While they were in the water I messed around with the straps... rolling them and bending and twisting them.

Then, while they were still wet, I took them out and stomped them in the dirt.

Literally kicking them and grinding them into the ground!

So the final result is pretty nice I think... don't you?!

Yes, it should be moved more "inward"... more to the "left" if you're looking at the pouch straight on.

And the little fasteners were silver.

Happy to help Bro!

Those pouches came out really cool! I like them a lot. Lots of character for sure!

Great job Noel!

Saludos.

PS... It was weird how I kept looking at the pouches pictures on facebook and wonder why I couldn't find myself on them. LOL...
