Having returned to modeling after many years and choosing armour as my first try, I am some what lost. I am trying to build a Panzerkampwagen IV Ausf.H. I can't find anyone who makes rotbraun in enamel. Does any one make it? I thank you for any help you can be.

Well, I always thought it was Humbrol 100, but I checked my reference, which I include as a link, and they say Humbrol 160. I still think Humbrol 100 does it for me, but hey; what do I know.

I have the Hum 160 and it is red brown. Looks nice on armor. Also, makes good kar98 and BAR stock color, too!
