Painting

Post by Tankbear »

Thinking of painting my grey tiger 1. Would appreciate it if somebody could point me in the right direction to see examples.

I was thinking of going for something like a sand camouflage (dessert) scheme or as my wife’s suggestion the typical patch camouflage but in different shades of grey instead of the green and browns etc.

I know neither of these are probably not true to the historic camouflage schemes, hence why asked for examples to see what works or I like.
