I was reading that Russain armor had winter camo of White blobs linked together which formed an "Ameba" pattern.

Is this true? And how do you do that particular scheme?

And, what is a lime whitewash? How do I get the paint that I put on to look "lime" colored.

Not too sure about the "Amoeba" pattern but, the lime white wash that is spoken of is in fact not lime "green" colored at all. They used the kind of lime that was used for either a mortar (building material) or a fertilizer. This kind of lime was white in color. It comes from either crushed sea shells or crushed limestone. It is developed by calcining forms of calcium carbonate - shells, limestone.
This lime was in plenty in Europe, more so than paint at times.

I feel stupid now, I can't believe I actually thought that the lime paint job was actually a lime colored deal. Ok, so it is like a white wash? Like white washes on American and German tanks.

Thats it now, thanks Ken!

Chip,
this would wear off quite quick and it's also very corrosive so it could lift paint off
in places they used lime on the dead as well to help break down the bodies
quicker as well
