Hi guys,
I plan on doing a diorama set in Ardennes 1944 with a Kingtiger. I also plan on adding these figures:

On the boxart it looks like the color of the uniforms are mostly green but when I look at the back there are numbers of Gunze colors and the trenchcoats are in Field Grey. Which color is it now? Sorry I don't know much about German uniforms.
Thanks in advance,
Daniel

Daniel,
Speaking only from my experience of painting Tamiya German uniform camo, pretty much every regular infantryman I've painted has been listed on Tamiya charts as XF65 - Field Gray, which is in fact a greenish colour. Based on this, the listing on your box seems to be correct.
I have, however, no experience with Gunze colours.
Hope this helps.
