I am building the leopard 1a2 Iatlian army are the tools painted same colour as the tank? What colour is the Italian leopard, OD?

Hi,

the most ital. Leopard 1MBTs are painted overall Bronzegrün (RAL 6031). The color you should use is Revells matt R65, lighted with light grey. The tools of Leopard tanks (i know this from the Bundeswehr) are painted also Ral 6031.
I hope this will help you.

Hi,
it´s me again!

I forgot something to say.
Only the newest version of the Leopard (IT) (Leo 1A5) wear the Ral 6031color.
Early vehicles, like those licensed build in IT or the first batch delivery from Germany wore Ral 6014. This is a color in Germany called "Gelb-Oliv".
A good match is Revell matt 46 for a light faded out color.
If you want to use the original color use Humbrol 75 or a mixture of Revell 65, 81 in the ratio 2:1.

Bye
