We have painted our carrier in the scheme that all armour carried in the first 6 months of the Italian campaign of the 2nd New Zealand Div. I believe most British & Commonwealth units used similar schemes in Sicily & Italy. The base colour was Light Mud, although it seems some people called it Mud Grey, with a Blue/Black pattern. We had great difficulty finding a sample or anything to go by for the base colour, so we hope its close! We matched it from model paints and some colour footage. The actual pattern varied greatly, we copied ours from a few photos of carriers and shermans.
Thanks Lynn, the motors great. We had to pull apart some of the suspension shafts to free them up properly but other than that it goes great!
