Hi all,
As a change from my Vietnam era modelling I am doing an OOTB AFV Club M1130 Stryker Command Vehicle.
I have a few questions that I hope you can help with.
1st what is the best colour match for Field Green in either Vallejo Model Air or Tamiya paint?
2nd for the drivers and commanders vision periscopes what is the best paint or other medium to use to get the colours?
3rd and last does anyone have photos of a M1130 Command Vehicle with stowage on it, with all the aerials and antennas I'm not sure how much if any I should add?
I was going to use the decals for the 1st Squadron, 2nd Stryker Cavalry Regiment "War Eagles"
Any help would be much appreceated.

Hi David,
1. I use Tamiya XF-67 NATO Green out of the glass.
2. I paint the front of the periscopes with Tamiya Clear Red.
3. For pictures of a 2nd SCR Stryker M1130 drop me an e-mail under:
[email protected]
Cheers
