[Iguazzu]

Hi friends!

Well, I've this guy in my workbench, waiting to be painted, but really I haven't idea about uniforms and colours, etc. So I would like to ask for help to find or recieve information. Can you help me?

Alex, this is great help but are more stuff in web.
Here...
Here, you can find Model color tips for camo patterns

Ardennes, you can paint it with splinter camo, or tarnwater pattern, trousers fieldgrey or grey, helmet white, or 3 color camo and you have more options...

cheers

Hello,I recently painted this figure:

http://www.planetfigure.com/threads/fallschirmjager-ardennes-1944-jeffshiu-120mm.46529/

I use colors used by Jaume in his book and are perfect:

Splintermuse pattern:

Base: Iraqui sand 819 + Deck tan 986 + Chocolate brown 872

Red Brown: Mahogany Brown 846 + Chocolate Brown 872

Medium Green: Olive grey 888 Blue green 808 + Deck Tan 986

The pants can paint from Fieldgrey, olive to blue luftwaffe.

regards

Hi again friends!

Finally I decided to use this camo (really i don't know it's technical name... )

But now, my doubt is... which colors can I use as base for the three diferent parts? I never had painted a camo , so i'm very lose.

About the panths, I've decide to use a fieldgrey. What do you think?

Hi Iguazzù follow the pattern of Jaume Ortiz (Vallejo)color she used Vaux!
For the trousers...fieldgray is fine.
