Hi guys
I have a couple of questions i hope you guys could help with First, does anyone know the markings for either the Irish Guard or any of the advance recon units assigned to 30 Corp? Second, the only pictures of the cities I've been able to find are in black and white, if anyone has some colored pic I could take a look at it would be a big help. To better explain what I'm looking for, the idea behind the dio is of a advance unit of 30 Corp entering one of the cities. most of the details still need to be worked out. {I started late}
Thanks in advance

The markings I don't know anything about...
As far as color goes, it's going to be rough to get during that time period.
What I am doing for colors is - rented and watched A Bridge To Far, there are a lot of urban sceens in it that can give you some ideas of color. - I have searched on Google.com for the city name and gone to there current tourist site and looked at what the colors are now. If you stick with the same type of construction (ie brick, or plaster) the colors should vary a great deal.

Hi guys
I"ve watched the movie a couple of times, but I was a little shy about using a movie for reference because I was not to sure about the reliablty [spelling ?] If you guys are saying its close enough I'll rent it and take notes. Thanks

Doesn't Band of Brothers have a market garden scene? This may help with buildings and such.
