Shoulder board made from captured Luftwaffe Tress

I recently traded for this wonderful shoulder board, which has been made using captured Luftwaffe NCO collar tress. I really do love it. I hope that you all do too.

Have there been any other custom made insignia like this that you all have come across?

Very nice. Here is another m43 epaulet backed with "re-purposed" German cloth

Is that German splinter camo?
