| Did the Russians use different camouflage schemes on their tanks? other than white for winter. I would like to camouflage my KV 1. Thanks. |

| Hi Vern, First, I don't think we have met or spoke? Welcome! If we have forgive me my mind isn't what it used to be... This should help you to for paint on KV-1. I think you will find if you leave ekranami (the supplemental armour) on the tank I don't remember ever seeing one with camo. However if you remove it, fill in the holes and tidy it up there are a few choices here: http://www.tanks-encyclopedia.com/ww2/soviet/soviet_KV-1.php _____________________________________________ "There are things in Russia which are not as they seem..."

Stormin Norma had just about decided on a white washed winter version for her T34. From my perspective , I quite like your idea of simulated " just throw a few pails of white paint on it ,and send it into battle ,wet paint and all" |
