Different paint patterns.

Post by lablksmith » Sun Jul 09, 2006 5:36 pm

Have just located two more German halftracks @ WM. The two have the same numbers and markings but different paint patterns. Has this been found everywhere or is it somthing new? One is yellow with much smaller amout of green spray. The other is similer to the original that came out only the pattern is differnt with a Fallshirmyager. The yellow one has no figure.

The tan one with the minimal amout of green spray is a new variant. I believe it is the 3rd paintscheme for the Hannomag. It would go pretty well with the S1 Panzer IV.

I like the darker one myself. However, I have yet to jump into the Axis stuff.

It does go well with the S1 Panzer. And it is more tan than yellow. Would it be suited for North Africa in this color?

The "D" version of the 251 was the last version built and wasn't used in Africa. You would need an "A" or "'C" model for the DAK

Sure wish 21C would put out figures to match these new paint patterns!
