Hi Gang,I`ve just ordered the above off E-Bay but looking through the instructions i find the colour scheme a little bit too civilian.
My question to my fellow modellers out there is there any alternative schemes to be had ?.I would have posted this on the railway forum but it seems to take forever to get an answer !.
Any pointers will most appreciated.

Well, are you looking for a camouflage pattern? Because most unarmored trains were kept the standard black and red pattern. Usually only armored trains had a different paint scheme. I hope this helps.

Hi

there are a couple of people that I think may be able to help you but I can't promise they'll reply or know the answer.

One is Ian Hill known by his callsign brokeneagle over on planetarmour. He's doing a great job on a loco on that site

The other is a person called Libor callsign gravedigger here on armorama who has just started selling parts for 1/35 trains and seems to be very knowledgeable on German WW2 trains.

Do a search here under Libor, and once you get a posting of his you can then "message" him.

Hope it helps.

Alan
