OK...so I am converting a Tamiya M2A2 Bradley to a M6 Bradley Linebacker, and looking for color schemes.
Now I am assuming that the US paints them in one of 2 patterns....either solid desert sand color, or the Nato 3 color scheme.
What I am thinking is possibly a winter scheme. To those out there that are operational in the US military, is there an semi official scheme for a winter camo for armored vehicles??? Or would there be like a white wash that would be used, or something that would break the NATO camo up in the winter.
Thinking of doing a winter scene....Bradley coming down a snowy, icy road, little snow on it, little mud, looking for some unsuspecting helo or low flying fixed wing.

Nope, no US winter scheme. We don't even do whitewash any more. Sorry, you are pretty much set in either 3-color NATO or Sand.

Hmmmm, anything that the crews would semi official/un-official to their tracks to keep a Nato 3 color tank from sticking out in the white snow????
Desert Tan color would actually blend into the snow a little better.
