Re: Underconstruction
The brown actually is a bit reder than the pic shows. All three colors were
diluted to show late war scheme. As i have found the Germans did alot of their own camo in the field and used what ever they had to dilute the paint. Thus almost no shade of color is wrong.

Re: Underconstruction
I know that the colours varied n' that there's hard to get it wrong. It's just feelin' for me.

Re: Under construction
Love the chipped paint effect Luft...hard to get right. Especially around the cuppola and turret top. The busted shovel tells a story too mate.
Peace.
