Guys, what colour was the KT jack? I'm guessing that it would be either yellow or primer, but as usual i'm probably wrong.

weeeeelllllll its a what if tank anyway. going to be a KT that has survived and is at the battle of berlin. so going ambush cammo and lots of junk. so might just do it dunklegelb as if it has been taken from another tank. however i'm liking the thought of the red oxide primer. basicly, if i have this coerrect, what ever i do would be sort of right. cheers guys, again it's one of those things that you can never really find on the tinterweb.

I am thinking about that one for my e50 build.....I have read the paint job was done by the crew before driving the tank off the factory lot.....but I have also read that it was the new camo pattern for 1945....so who knows?

Tiger jacks arrived at the factory in a pale pastille green colour and then sometimes got the sand undercoat or green camo paint on them used ones show down to the pastille quite quickly but it was durable as it was a enamel process
