These are the colours that I will be using.
Base colour XF-60 Dark Yellow.
Strips will be XF-67 Nato Green and XF-68 Nato Brown.
Then I will put a dust coat of XF-57 Buff on top which will knock the colour back a lot.
Picked that idea up from watching a bloke build WWII Tanks. yes!
All paint is Tamiya color acrylic paint range.

Sounds like a good selection of colours for a military style combo for sure. thumbsup

Ya looked at doing strips with airbrush but don't have a fine enough tip and looked at masking with tape but would of used to much so I doing it by hand should work out Ok I thinking
