I seem to recall seeing a pic of an uparmored Challeger, painted in green/black, with desert tan frontal armor and uparmored sideskirts. I have looked and looked, but I can't seem to find the picture. Does anyone have a link to it? I'm about to begin painting my Challenger I mk III and wanted to do this color scheme

go here
D I Database
and type "Challenger" into the search facility, I'm pretty sure you'll find what you want.

You recall right. It is a KRH Cr 1 Mk III that deployed to Kosovo. The frame for the ERA was indeed still in tan paint.
Echelon Fine Details make a decal set to make any tank from that Regiment for that deployment (and some I/SFOR versions too, but w/o the applique armour)

Prime Portal has a series of photos of an uparmoured Chally 2 in Green/Black camo on a parade ground or someplace:
