Hey Karl, if your G is built after Sept 44 then it would not have Zimmerit as that was when it was discontinued. As to a totally green Panther? I have not seen any evidence of one, but that does not mean they did not exist

Hi,
Try Pz Div. "Munchenburg", 9th Pz. and Pz Div. "Tatra". I've read unit histories that they came from the factory in Green paint.
