Hi everybody,
In the instruction guide of my BA-3 is written that these vehicles were all painted in the usual Russian Green Nr.11 and 12. Can somebody explain this code to me?
And were these colours uesd before the war or also during the WWII?
I could really use some help with this one.
I've painted my BA-3 with olivegreen, pre-shading was done with some dark green, lightening of the centre of the panels with olive green and a dab of dark yellow. But I'm not satisfied with this colour, I think it must be brighter, what do you think???
So before I start repainting the model I'll have to be sure about the colour...

Greetings and thanks in advance,
Beaker

A good out-of-bottle color for pre and early was russian vehicles is Model Master Acrylic Dark green.
