Tom,
I do like the Sovs' 'Protective Green'. Max's Russian Green is spot on for the yellow tint. The color really grows on you. My Capture KV may well end up being that color with German markings. I like the grey because it is intricate with shadows and details like bolts. The Green seems to highlight more. I have a version with the Tri - Tone camo in the mail to look over. It should be here soon. This tank, the more I learn about it, the more I can't wait to RC one.
regards,
Painless

the kv is a really bad ass tank. I have a kv 1 to, but the big Brother 'mother' is just way cooler.

That's a lovely pair you got there (ey up!!). I still can't get over how big it is, I mean the sturm tigers a big ol' beast. The KV-2 just dwarfs it though, it's awesome!

Guys,
I had Alpha take a pic of his Sherman next to his KV-2 for a reason. As you now know, that thing is a Monster (Capital 'M') ;o) I am psyched! ;o)

This will need to be updated... but just in case no one saw the comparison Painless spoke of

No where near your building abilities Tom... but man... can you see the difference...the Sherman pretty much is dwarfed by the Kv... with that said... a better comparison might be the KT against the Kv ;)

I might be able to supply such a photo! It's not just the length/width, the height and the enormity of that turret just dwarf other tanks! It's not called gigant for no reason!
