Thanks for all the information rivetcounter. I also have only been able to find the two pictures of A02 that you mention. One is even in the Jentz book, two pages before the line drawings of the tank.

I am not sure how you can determine that the tank is painted in dunkelgelb. It certainly is not gray, but if the information mondo provides is correct, it could be a shade of yellow. What do you think about this?



Thanks for the information mondo, although you certainly confused things.


If it turns out to be dunkelgelb, what is a good one to use? The three I have called dunkelgelb all have a very green tint to them, and the Ammo of Mig one I was looking at also seemed to have a very green tint, almost to the point where I would be hard pressed to call any of them dark yellow. I also have Vallejo Middlestone and Green Ochre. The Green Ochre is the least green of them all (funny), and the Middlestone is very similar to the various dunkelgelbs I have.

I knew this would be the hardest part after I read through a bunch of threads on scale modeling forums.
