Hi guys,
I am just building dmls t34 85 and i am unsure of the colours of the crews overalls. I have seen painted minatures in either black or a light blue. Does anybody know what colour I should be aiming for in a 1944 tank crew???

Red Army tanker's overalls were usually black, which of course could fade to blue or grey. I've seen examples that were pretty light. So any of those colors - black, grey, or blue - will do.
The helmets could also be any shade from black to very light grey. The uniform collar underneath the overall should be khaki or OD.

They started with blue then became black and at the last stages green much like the russian uniform.
