Hi, my first post here I have started building the Revell 1:72 king tiger and don't want to attept zimmerit. I'm not too good at working out camo schemes from one or two side views, so I wondered if anyone knows where I can find an ambush scheme (or any non-zimmerit scheme) in the full five views.
Thanks

Did you try to search in the Armorama gallery? I remember at least one or two very good examples.

Thanks, I had a look, very good models but still only one or two side views.

I quite like the second scheme included in the kit, it's a bit different from normal (brown pattern over yellow) and it has all five views to follow, but I don't know if it should have zimmerit (says 1945).

IMHO everything you need is here:

https://armorama.kitmaker.net//features/3043

there are others (much older), just look in features/ tanks section
