According to Bruce Culver's Panter Colours closed German Military Vehicles and tanks were painted in german interior buff . Does anybody know which colour comes very close to the original one.
I would prefer Tamiya acrylics. Maybe XF-57?

Thx
Drader

The colour is a very pale cream known as 'elfenbein', these photos of the Saumur Tiger 1 give an idea (allowing for rust etc.)
