Now that I'm trying my hand at WWI armor, I'm realizing I need some better sources for paint colors... in particular:
* British uniforms (tankers and infantry)
* AFV schemes and primers (especially the British Mk 1 Male)
Anyone have any links they can share?
Thanks!

AK interactive does a WW I British Uniform set and Ammo of Mig does a set of WWI British and German colors. Both available on the Internet.
Hope this helps,

Thanks! I'll look at them.
I'm actually looking more for paint charts so I can understand the real life colors, as well as then how to map against the available hobby paints.

I think with the armour colours it's one of those cases where if you're close - then you won't be wrong - because no one knows exactly what's right.
