Hey Jantztim !

Yes I built and sprayed both.
Well they are the same base color mixed from TAMIYA acrylics of which I mix a larger quantity of each.
But then which each model I “modified” them a bit individually according to the input I have on the specific vehicle. The GREEN & BROWN on 215 is a little lighter in tone. The YELLOW is the same of both.
I actually never use identical colors on any of my kits … sometimes only visible if they are lined up next to each other … except for NATO-Black.

Cheers
Christopher

thanks I understand, ofcourse it’s mixed haha,
but i thought if you could give me the base numbers for the colors, from there i can figure it out myself,
and make my own mix, would be great, love the patterns

Did some research and some trips to the various Ardenne museums … looks like the majority of new Panther initially had all their side-skirts prior the offensive. There is just one photo of 215 with the front right skirt visible during the first days of action.
So I decided to add the skirts … just starting with the weathering process …
The camo scheme is fiction interpretation of existing / similar ones of that period.
