Anybody know where I can find images of the Swedish "S" in winter markings? I like the splinter pattern and was curious bout doing one wearing a winter scheme. Thanks. "Q"

When doing the winter camo the light green and brown spots are covered with whitewash.
Dark green and black remains as they are. The whitewash is a chalk and waterbased paint similar to the ones used by germany during WWII.

Toke, thanks for the info. I got a "B" on the shelf that I want to do in a winter scheme. You wouldn't happen to have any pics by chance would you? IF not, thats ok. Your explanation was clear enough. Thanks again. "Q"
