Kubelwagen Top

Post by Jnewboy » Mon Jul 01, 2013 3:12 pm

Im working on a 1/6 Kubelwagen and I want the top up so Im building the frame from scratch and going to use material to give it a very real look. Im doing it in winter whitewash and am curious as to the color I should use for the top. I have found color pics of them with brown tops but have read that they were also sometimes grey. I think the grey would look better but want it to be right. Any help would be great. Thanks :D

The brown is definitely more common, but they did appear in gray. There are also a few black tops out there. I guess it really depends on what color the vehicle itself will be; obviously if you go for a late-war look then you should go with brown.
