3 Colour Cammo Discussion

Post by Will Roberts »

Hello Antony and Lee,
The discussion about this sideskirt continues on Missing Lynx (link below) and this is probably the first real evidence that some Panthers (post Oct 44) were painted in Red Oxide primer and then Green and Dunkelgelb were used as Camouflage. The interesting observation is that the red on the inside of the skirt is the same colour as that on the outside.

I am still building my Panther (very slowly) but this is the scheme I will be painting mine in.

Regards,

Will.
