If you were going to paint a German 75mm anti-tank gun used on the eastern front in '42 or '43, what would the paint scheme be? I wasn't sure if they were painted in dark yellow or panzer grey and if they had camoflage above and beyond that.

Does anyone know where I can find color photos of this gun on the web?

Thanks, GR8Voyager

For 1942 Russian front panzer gray In February 1943 they changed over to dark yellow I would imagine they would have camoflauge painting depending on terrain and season like winter
