Martin,
I used a mix I pulled off another Armorama thread:
Using Tamiya paints: 6 parts Dark Green XF-61, 2 parts Olive Green XF-58, 2 parts Khaki XF-49 - Except I didn't have Dark Green so I substituted Dark Green II (RAF) XF-81.
I was not very scientific in my measurements and it took about four mixes to finish the base coat.

Hello All,
In January I am going to Hospital for 2-3 months. I cannot be the Campaign leader if you want an extension, I am sorry to say.
While I am there, They will decide if you will be taking just one or both of my legs and do so other surgery to remove some of the larger tumors ( some of them are 1-2 pounds in weight inside me ).
So if all of you do want this campaign to go on, you will have to ask Jeremy to take over while I am gone.
If not, At the end of the campaign on 12/31/12 at 2400 MST The campaign is over. I will give all of you 36 hours to get your final photo's in the gallery. On January 3rd I will post the call-sign's of the of the members I have given the ribbons to.
Please remember I go by the Photo Gallery to post the ribbons, Not the threads. So please post your finished Photo's in the Gallery.
Great Work Everyone and Thanks to Jeremy for holding this campaign together while I have been sick,
Cheers,
Bruce
