Hi Oz ,
Thanks very good . Theres a lot of vereations in each pattern . I have a book that shows XX cammo uniforms . Theres the pea dot jkt and trousers and also the panzer wrap . They say on the pea dot theres two large islands of colour then the dots . In my modeling book it shows a 1:35 !!!! XX soldier in pea dot with several large areas of the two colours . But in the book it shows on the panzer wrap with just two large areas of the dark green , then a couple of the tan type colour then the rest is just spots . Different to the modeling book . My repro set to has several of the two islands of colour and the three dots . But again in the book the pea dot infantry jkt has several of both large islands and again the spots .

Thanks Littletankman
