Hey all, I have just picked up the Tamiya 1/35 T72 M1 and was wondering if anybody here could point me in the right direction as far as paint color goes in either the Tamiya or Gunze range? I plan on using the kit decals and doing the vehicle in either Soviet or DDR service.

TIA

Hi Darren

I asked this exact question a while back.

Here were the answers I got.

T72 Colour

I ended up using Tamiya Nato Green XF67. Once it was faded, shaded,and weathered it looked the part when it was done.

Hope this helps

Jeff

Thanks Mike & Gary, I've read the thread you posted Mike and that's the exact answer I was looking for.
