"Have one in mind but might alter camo style a bit." That's understandable. You have probably combed through the reference section here on RCTW. I also use the AK Interactive books, even though I use Vallejo paints. It's a difficult decision, and you have so much time and success put into your project.

been through my books. Not much in here in camo reference. Panzer IV pictures removed by photobucket.I might try some tamiya laquer paint. Runs really well through airbrush and is tougher than acrylic. There will be slight differences from photos but vehicles were altered throughout lifetime of vehicle so if slight differences in photos so be it.
