Camouflage test
Here's a game for everyone!
Pretty sure some of you may be able to do this in your sleep.
Guess what camo pattern this WWII German Hummel spg is wearing based on this "black & white" photo:
I will post the color version Friday night.

Re: Camouflage test
If it's a two color scheme, I'd go with Dark Yellow base and Red/brown on that.

Unless it is green on top of the Dark Yellow.

Re: Camouflage test
Can't recall the manufacturer, but its actually 1/72.
Found it while searching for camo schemes for the Dragon 1/35 kit I picked up. Got to thinking about how hard it is to tell what colors are really being seen in all those black & white photos.

Oh well.

Re: Camouflage test
This one could be a challenge....and I've never seen a color image of this Stug IV.
I guess it's safe to say it's a three color scheme or is it?

Re: Camouflage test
I think it may be similar to this:
This is a late war scheme from what I've been able to determine. One of the 1/35 Hetzer kits comes with very complex numbered masks to achieve it.
