Was wondering about others opinion of the accuracy of MM Russian Armor Green. The color looks like a good match for modern vehicles, but is it accurate for WWII armor?

I used it on a late war T-34 / 85. I think I added a wee bit of yellow and white to tone it down. The only one I used it straight on was my T55 in parade mode. (All that white trim ect.

It's very blue and semigloss. I don't consider it a good match out of the bottle for any Soviet vehicle. I prefer FS 34102, a USAF cammo color which is a respectable match for Russian 4BO Protective Green.
