Jarndice,
These pages are helpful. Looks like white with bare metal periscopes and mounts. http://www.alanhamby.com/gallery.shtml

Thanks Painless, when I think about it, you told me about this site last year or the year before and it is on my favourites list but of course I never thought to look! by the way you have always had my respect but that went even higher when I discovered that Wish was a rescue dog, you sir are the salt of the earth. shaun

Shaun,
Both of my Greys are rescues. Always seemed to make sense to me. Thank you, Sir. I am glad that the site is of use.
regards,
Painless

from what I know ,early years the interior was painted in Elfenbein ( ivory ), later years they were just red oxide , and the periscopes were black and I seem to remember that the loaders and commanders cupola hatches were red oxide underneath as the ivory stood out like a sore thumb when in the open position 8| :haha:

ICE, thank you, as one day it will be an early Tiger 1 ( I really need to live to about 125 to finish it) that is useful information. shaun
