Also great scale model Cliff, like the dirt.

PM sent with ALL the Aussie paint colour formula using Humbrol model paints as formulated & researched by Mike Cecil from the AWM. I'd use the pre 1942 service green which I am picking was used up to the end of 1942 or when stocks ran out.

Here is the formula for anybody else that wants it.Note the two shades of Service Green - Pre & Post 1942


Australian Army WW2 paint colors

All Humbrol paints unless noted


POST 1942 green

10 parts #150 – matt Forest Green
02 parts #100 – matt red brown
01 part #33 – matt black

PRE 1942 green

11 parts #10 – service brown
06 parts #2 – emerald green

ASCW light Earth (FS33440) – Aussie Mud colour

3 parts Revell 380
1 part #34 – matt white

OR (this is the one I use)

6 parts #94 – matt brown yellow
1 part #159 – matt khaki drab

Light Stone

8 parts #74 - matt linen
1 part #26 – matt khaki
