I have a 1:72 early production T62 nearly finished. But I am wondering what colour to paint the unditching log. Were they painted 4BO along with the rest of the tank? Or were they left aux natural?
Anyone got any convincing ideas one way or the other?
Cheers
And happy tanking!

Not sure on the t-62, but most of the others seem just to be plain wood, complete with bark!

The log is predominantly unpainted. While there may be examples of it painted, they generally do not want to waste paint on a very expendable piece of material.
