Very sensible way of breaking up the outlines. If I remember rightly from my research of German WW2 winter camo, it certainly depended on the artistic leanings of the crew who were often given a tub of whitewash and some vague oral instructions...

Saying that and as with all camo schemes, there really wasnt a hard fast way of slapping them onto each vehicle so anything goes to be honest. Nice to see a not-all-green allied truck for once!Daihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04978439841611727387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5898341582574934477.post-31643244153873716382016-05-07T21:30:40.496+01:002016-05-07T21:30:40.496+01:00Cheers, buddy.

Every reference pic I could find for it had comically different interpretations and applications, so it's pretty much fair game really, I think!Admiral Draxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07476823273954165890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5898341582574934477.post-27241354964306986742016-05-07T21:28:20.653+01:002016-05-07T21:28:20.653+01:00If you follow references, you won't go far wro...If you follow references, you won't go far wrong. Somebody else has normally given it a lot of thought and done the donkey work. Experimenting can be fun, but it's normal a variation on an existing theme which doesn't look too bad.
