Hi Scott

I use the dunkelbelg post 1944 from this guy in germany. He ships within europe I believe.

You can also get the pre 1944 version of the dunkelgelb.
cheers

For what is worth, in rattle cans I think Tamiya TS-3 is hard to beat and generally readily available.

I'm using it on my Elefant and it looks just fine.

It is now available to purchase at £24 per litre including VAT, can plus p&P of £12.88 + VAT making a total of £39.46 from
