Suggestions for a mix in Tamiya acrylics? Watched a series of videos on Youtube where the builder used MigAmmo Yellow Grey from the modern Russian armor set...looks the business.

Good question....I would be interested too, either Tamiya mix or Vallejo Air color choice.

Was just going through my Tamiya paints and think that Buff XF-57 and Deck Tan XF-55 might yield good results, either one or the other, or a mix...maybe add a tinge of green? Use XF-64 Red Brown for the shadow base color maybe.

For some reason I think it should be the same color as US vehicles.
