Hey. Building my first German tank, bought it when I was out looking for a T-34 kit. Ended up picking both a Tamiya T-34/76 and Panther V Ausf. A. , with a nice discount I might add...

I know in the T-34 interior is white, what about the interior of the Panther? Driver's and commander's hatches will be open and I want to know what color would be correct. Thanks guys.

I can't say as to the exact correct color, but for me for German tank interior, I tend to use an off-white, with a very slight dark yellowish or orangish over spray for the crew compartment, and primer red for the engine compartment. For crew compartment hatch interior, I match them to the vehicle base color, ie German Grey or Dark Yellow.

Here is an image of my latest build interior, a Panzer IV Ausf G.
