I am building the DML Sdkfz 7/1 Flakvierling 38. I need to know what color the shoulder boards should be.
Thanks

G'day Mike,

I really dependends on which paint/decal scheme you'll be going for - I believe this kit offers at least 4 schemes OOTB with one being 24 Pz Div, and 2 others being Luftwaffe.

Which figures will you be using?

Safest is red piping. This happens to be the Waffenfarbe colour for all Heer Artillerie troops, including Flakartillerie; is same for Luftwaffe Flak, and SS also. These vehicles were issued to Flakartillerie Abteilungen on the whole, although they could also be found in divisional protection companies and Panzerregiment HQ companies.
