I've heard it whispered in dark corners that there may have been Scammell Pioneers painted in the Caunter Scheme... I've seen one painted image of this - is there any definitive proof? I've done the usual Google search etc.

Gun tractors certainly. Never seen a wrecker in that scheme though.

Speaking of the counter scheme...what would be the Tamiya color equivalent?

A search for 'caunter tamiya' brought up this:

For the benefit of anyone who hadn't considered this route 🤔

I've made up these colour mixes and they look very good.
