Hi Kevin,
Did you search this forum already? Look for Mike Starmer's books, he researched coulors and schemes from original sources, all you need is there. Regards, Hanno

My knowledge in this area, is pretty much zip, but I doubt that any Canadian MkI* universals, were ever painted in caunter camoflage. I think you would find them all to be British built carriers in that pattern.(I am ignoring the Australian LP1)
Maybe someone (Mike S.?  ) might like to tune in and wise me up.

Starmer is the chap to speak with... Kevin email him his knowlege on the subject is vast.... i spent ages discussing schemes with him for my carrier.... what i will say though is if you have used the current pattern light stone. it is the wrong shade (so i am told...and going from starmers swatches would tend to agree)
also caunter itself is a nightmare as from different dates the colours changed, some were a number of shades of light green and beige over light stone.... others were blue light stone and slate/grey....

I'd agree, talk to Mike. He's helping with the colours the scout was painted.
I found it to be KG3 from the factory with sand and stone colours on top of that. Mike is trying to establish if it was the early British desert scheme or caunter over the KG3. Both correct for 1940. Which one are you doing in caunter? Ben
