Hey guys need a little help here. I am painting a Tri-color Camo T90 and have the fuel drums on rear attached.
I want to paint one of the drums like it has been replaced. I have searched online and haven't been able to find what other colors the drums could possibly be.
Is there a primer color that the drums might of been in before painting? Would black drums be out of the ordinary?
Any ideas?
Thanks!

If it will be a "parade" or depot vehicle, then you can vary or fade the green a bit, but not too much. In the field, you have a LOT more leeway. Google fuel barrel russian tank and look.

I was going for out in operations. I did a search but did not get much results other than other Russian Green fuel drums.
