Hi!

Yesterday I start to paint my jagdpanther "823".

I use my old Panther chassis, for a try of the colors.

Its the "orange" hue of the Rottbraun A MIG - 014 correct?.

I shake it properly, but always get this "color".

Or its supposed to be correct for a extra "late" "red" primer or color?.

Seems ok, a black wash should tone it down buddy.

Looks good to me...but there are many shades of the primer red, so there's no shame in playing around. You can always add other colors to it (Mig AMMO does mix pretty well with Life Color and Vallejo).

Also keep in mind that the colors on you test hull make the primer look more orange than it actually is.

It doesn't look right to me. Way too much orange. In fact, I find that Vallejo & MIG German colors don't look right. But this is just my personal observation.
