Q:
What's a good color for early T-62 in the typical Soviet Green?
Faded and old too.
Something commonly available in the US would be a bonus...

Testors Model Master FS 34095 is a match to the color when new. It's available as a USAF cammouflage color. Cold War Soviet tanjs often had a semigloss finish to facilitate NBC decontamination (and it looked good in parades).

Thanks Gerald,

I'm hoping that's one of the (few) Model Master I have in the stash...
