I´m planning to repaint my Firefly Vc because the it´s actual colour doesn´t seem accurate when I compare my model with some pics or profiles. Can somebody help me in the task of identify wich is the correct colour.

Responses will be much appreciated.

The best kind of eyeball match I have for "Bronze Green" is a dark emerald green. Not very bright at all. I am sure others can give you a better formula/color mix. WHat kind of paint are you using?

Hi J_Peiper:

Found nothing related with the Sherman Firefly there.

Hi m60a3:
I´m using Model Master or Humbrol, both enamels. Do you know the best match in any of these brands ?

Your Firefly would most likely be finished in SCC15 Olive Drab (often labelled Khaki Drab by the model paint makers). You can find mix details for Humbrol at this site,

white ensign models have started doing their own british colours in enamel paints and this little beauty is one of the british AFV range
white ensign models :-)

It depends at which point of the war you are going to portray. In Normandy, the colour leaned more towards Khaki.
