Hi Guys-

I am working on my M1 for the group build, and would like to do a three tone camo scheme. As this is really my first "modern" armor kit - I don't have all that many references. I know that that camo scheme was applied in a distinct consistent pattern from tank to tank.

My question.... does anybody have the three view template for this camoflage pattern for the M1? I have searched the internet in vain to find the proper three tone scheme. I just know some of you M1 buffs have this camo figured out :-) If you would kindly point me in the right direction - that would be super :-)

Later-
Jeff
