Greetings!

First post here. After a very long hiatus I am getting back into scale modeling.

My first kit is the Italeri Leo 1. This kit is from their WoT collection and the instructions only include paint information from the game.

Looking around on the interwebs isn't helping. I've seen references to OD, OD green, and color photos from the 60s is not clear.

I have a bottle of model master euro dark green that I may use if I can't get a solid answer.

What color would you guys suggest?

Thanks!

Hi Jimbo,

the color is RAL 6014 gelboliv
Humbrol 75, Tamiya XF69 or Vallejo 897 (98)

Model Master enamel RAL 6014 gelboliv NATO

Perfect, Thank you!

Tamiya XF-69 is NATO black?.... Maybe you thought about XF-67 NATO Green, but it is completely different color from RAL 6014.

Humbrol 75 is Bronze Green. It is also not even close to the RAL 6014.
Vallejo 897 is also Bronze Green.

I know that some conversion tables give these colors as equivalents of RAL 6014, but having the original official RAL 6014 full size color card, I can tell you that this is not correct.

Revell 46 NATO Olive is very close to the official RAL chip for 6014.

Sorry, I've used this information

But for my own early Bundeswehr tanks I bought Revell 46 and thought, that this a ROG produkt and not easy to buy in USA.

Model master does make the exact color in enamel.

I ordered a jar of MM RAL 6014. Thank you to everyone that replied.
