What is the correct color for painting a Panzer IV E for the Afrika Korps? I tried using the afrika Mustard spray but, I shook the can for three minutes and it would spray the color, then start splattering out brown paint.

Is the Afrika Brown, which looks more of a tan, correct?

DT you have 3 choices. Dark Grey, Desert Tan, or Desert Brown. The last two look nice well worn with Dary Grey showing through.
