I strongly recommend the ATAK Zimmerit for the 1/16th Elefant. A real time saver.

Yup, the ATAK kits are really nice.  The only downfall I've seen is they are almost too uniform.  Also I don't like the perfect pin wheel pattern
they use around the added armor retaining bolts on the front of the elefant.  Still a huge time saver.

This is true and maybe some battle damage here and there might break the monotony of the pattern or introduce some irregularity of the pattern in certain areas.

I'll just shop around for a camo pattern and go from there.

Have some more. I've got a comprehensive book in Russian about the entire series. I'll have to go back through the book, but it's possible there was only 1 Bergelefant.
