Found a new T-34 on Dragon's site...did Russian tanks ever have tri-color camo paint schemes?

Thanks for the link. That T-34 is looking good!

I guess early in the war the Russians had their tanks camouflaged. But when they were being mass produced on a massive scale, the Russian tanks were painted in one color or unpainted when they driven directly from the factory to the frontline! I hope they release some with the slogans painted on the side!

alot of russian vehicles had a two tone scheme pre war (pre 1941) of dark green and dark brown. I've never seen three tone scheme but dragon usually does their research so i would guess it is accurate, if perhaps obscure...

Yes its an authentic scheme. Its one of the schemes offered for the same version of the T-34 in the 1/35 Dragon kit.
