Hello

I am building an Italeri Opel Blitz in 1:72, and am wondering which colour to paint it inside? `

On the outside it will be Panzer Grey, and it's supposed to be on the east front in late winter 1942.

Thanks in advance

Hehe just wanted to post the same question

I assume it's just the exteriour color, as I can see on a lot of models on the internet, but I just wanted to be sure.....

So if anyone know, there are two people now how would like to know this! :-)

cab interior would be the same as the original exterior color. So grey if the exterior is grey and for late model stuff yellow the same as the outside. Seat either brown or black

tell me guys who makes those kits as they appear to have a reasonable amount of detail on them for the small scale?

Mine's the old ESCI kit, reissued by Italeri. A nice kit, but without much detail on the inside. Lots of possiblities for different periods are possible with the inclusion of quite a lot of different transfers. Here it is again with the base colours painted and the transfers for the 1940 version applied:



The transfers are quite good, you can actually read the black text on the door even though it is VERY small.
