Kev i have the italy scheme book if you need it... the first image of the war time pics (in post #2) imho is desert stone with a black / brown disrupive... going off the building behind it which will either be white or light stone
basically its the scheme i have chosen for my carrier too.... from my readings many carriers painted in the scheme had served in North africa and sicily (Op Husky) prior to Italy (Op Avalanche).I love the light mud scheme too which was my fall back scheme to keep in with my grandads timeline..

I used to own a 3" Mortar carrier W.D.NO T80874. I still have the brass plate. I bought this one in 1977 for $30.00 and drove it home. We had a lot of fun with it. I swapped bits off it to get parts for my LP2A and gave the rest to a chap in the Wairarapa where it still rests/rusts. It hasn't moved for at least 20 years a real shame.
