if you were to paint a panzer 4, what gray would you use?

it is time for me to lay some paint on the panzer 4 i just finished. i want to get away from the norm. ive done tanks in afrika colors, german camouflage, white wash, etc.
i have yet to do panzer gray. So, i would like to give it a shot. just not sure what color to use as the base color. color would preferrably be a model master color as they are the easiest for me to obtain
as for blue filter and/or streaking, which blue would you recommend?

Jesse:

The appropriate Testor's ModelMaster enamel would be "Schwarzgrau" #2094. This is very close to the Tamiya acryl German Grey (XF 60?).

As to filters... For a "dunkelgrau" vehicle, I always go the "prime with Floquil Engine Black enamel" to get a pre-shade, followed by straight Schwarzgrau lightly applied, followed by a lightened Schwarzgrau (add in a little buff to lighten and slightly "warm" the grey) concentrated more centrally in panels, etc..

I don't do any "filters", per se. I follow up the above with light oil van Dycke brown or raw umber washes to bring up bolts and other details, and some Mars Black pin-washing for lines, and then go to my weathering / dirt colors as desired. I usually do some version of Tamiya "flat earth" or lighter earth colors, followed by pastel chalks for real dusting.
