WW2 Uniform Guide


After many hours of searching the net and many links saved im my favorites I thought I would share some of my findings with you. Like many I have pondered over uniform colours and what paints to use and the circle seems to be never ending and mainly down to preference and previous experiences. Again after much reading I have decided to give Vallejo paints a go having previously use both Humbrol enamels and Tamiya acrylics. The following guide will state Vallejo colours only sorry you will have to convert to other colours. I hope they are of some help, they have been to me.
Acknowledgements go to Brzeczyszczykiewicz at www.military photos.net where I found the origional post, also to www.whatfor.prv.l where the origional article is I believe, but that site is in polish.
There are other uniforms at those sites as well but I just pulled out the ones I was interested in.

WW2 Uniform Guide


After many hours of searching the net and many links saved im my favorites I thought I would share some of my findings with you. Like many I have pondered over uniform colours and what paints to use and the circle seems to be never ending and mainly down to preference and previous experiences. Again after much reading I have decided to give Vallejo paints a go having previously use both Humbrol enamels and Tamiya acrylics. The following guide will state Vallejo colours only sorry you will have to convert to other colours. I hope they are of some help, they have been to me.

Acknowledgements go to Brzeczyszczykiewicz at www.military photos.net where I found the origional post, also to www.whatfor.prv.l where the origional article is I believe, but that site is in polish.

There are other uniforms at those sites as well but I just pulled out the ones I was interested in.
