hi,
for a diorama i m building i need some advice. what is the best color (humroll, revell. tamiya. lifecolor or vallejo) for a russian motor rifle squad WW2? i already have the vallejo russian uniform green but it seems a bit to green and kaki doesn't seem to be right either.

What if you mixed your Vallejo colors a little to get a lighter green?

Russian uniforms varied in tone from from a light sandy colour through tan and khaki to olive green, there is no best colour.
