ORIGINAL: rivetcounter

Just had a quick flick through a few books on Operation Citadel, it would appear the most tanks were yellow with green camo then yellow with green and brown camo then finally just yellow

Thanks, that is an interesting bit of info for me.

I did find something about Stug Brigade 210 coloursfrom;

"Ëast Front Armor Camoflage and Markings"by Steven J. Zaloga and Jamse Grandsen, Squadron/Signal 1983. page 12

A Stug IIIG of Stug Brigade 210, known as the Tigerkopf Brigade"because of the unit's distinctive brigade insignia, which is evident here. The brigade was heavily involved in the fighting in the Caucusus. and this view from 1943 shows the assualt gun in the new 1943 scheme of dark yellow with oive green overspray.
