Hi
Can I paint this (Evolution miniatures) uniform in the field gray, if so would it be white on the inside or fur colour.
Sorry I am not exactly sure if this is a Parka type uniform like the Alpine one below.
Any help would be great!!!
I would like to paint it like the Alpine one if it is correct to do so.
Thanks

Not entirely clear which uniform is sculpted here. Could be different version. Attached are some pics of some versions of the Wehrmacht form, which came in reversible and non-reversible versions.
Hope you can read the captions.
This is from the book Wehrmacht camouflage uniforms and their post-war derivatives by Daniel Peterson.

Or it is this SS one, out of non-reversible Italian camouflage and with fur lining in the hood.

This is from the (excellent) book Waffen-SS Uniformen in Colour, by Steven and Amodio.

And then there is this non-reversible padded one well-known from the Charkow battle.
(From Deutsche Uniformen, by Jean de Lagarde)

It really depends on the details of the sculpt, but it seems to be easy to convert this figure to various version.

Hope this is of use.

Cheers,
Adrian

This will sound strange but I just love the colour of these plain parka types
