This might be a silly question, but I don't know much about Soviet armor. I am unsure of what colors to use when paining RB models T-62 stowage set. I have been trying to find some color pictures but most of what I find is BW. IS everything mostly khaki as far as tarps and backpacks or were there also camo'd items or OD green-ish colors?
If camo, what would be correct? Thanks.

From what I understand of Russian military doctrine, troops were put in the field with vague orders; and expecteded to survive on what they could scrounge, buy or take by force. As for camo patterns in Afghanistan search Google Images for "T-62 Afghanistan". There are plenty of color photos.
