Camo and correct paint colours.

[Rodacademy]

Hi folks
Just bought my first tank bits but not thinking about paint. Where does one get various Tiger camo patterns and where do I get the correct paint?
Thanks for any help

Camouflage patterns were theatre-of-operations dependent (Africa, Russia, North West Europe, and so on). They also changed over time with tank revisions, and regimental requirements, from 1942-45.
A good starting point for anyone with a Tiger 1, though, is to look at these two exceptional sites:

However, for a quick look at potential patterns, you'll find quite a few schemes at the bottom of this lengthy, but immersive, article (scroll down):

Vallejo, MIG and AK international produce all the colours you will need, for all combatants, and also late war colours. Individual sets will have all the colours you will need for AFVs, Soldiers, Aircraft etc.

Good find, Kaczor- I'd almost forgotten it!

Here is a quick guide to German camo by year, find what year you want then go for it . Add in field or factory applied , paint shortages and repaired tanks give lots of leeway for painting. http://www.kiwimodeller.com/index.php/c ... asic-guide
