| There is no standard russian green. It was basically anything they can get hold off. Dark green from Tamiya never look right to me, so it is either olive drab which is not green enough for me, or olive green which is usually the one I used. or there is now an olive green 2 or something like that. This is all Tamiya spray bomb I am referring to. |

| If you are using a rattle can Vallejo Hobby Colour Russian 4BO is excellent. You should be able to do the whole T-34 with a can and a half. That's all I used on mine |

Is Vallejo the only one that makes it ? I am fine with Vallejo just curious if others do. Next time I am out I will stop by and stock up on it. I will try it on my SU-152. |

| The Vallejo 4BO with some slight dust weathering. (I've given up on ever thinking an image will post right here) I actually like it better than the Tamiya rattle cans there just isn't the selection of colours and is a lot less expensive. I used it on both the KVs. The KV-1 I did with Tamiya Olive Drab but after the first coat I re-did it with the Vallejo. Thought the Tamiya was a bit dark. Mike I'm good if you want to do a side by side with the T-34 |
