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.
