        Also if you need help with the west German camouflage for the crew...Flektarn camo is the one you are looking for. Just about everything except belts and webbing was done in it.
        oh Ian,your a life saver,thank you so much for sorting that,were is,for me,,
        you saved me just in time,only need a little reworking of the camo,there wearing,which is good,has the right base colors,
        the belts and webbing was done in,what looks like a middle green,so will use a russian green looks close to it, I know not true color,
        and lucky I had not gone to far with the base,a little reworking,as the building are just what a modern build,or flat is like with a pitched roof,
        so very lucky that,your give great info,ta

          I was wondering about the middle east setting too. If I was you Monica, I'd remove the building & add a couple of fir trees. That's what I'm planning for the base for my T-55.

          Is it me or does the Flektarn camo look remarkably similar to SS pea dot camo?

            maybe I got a bit confused or just plain got things wrong,but the leopard was in afghanistan as well I think,
            the camo to also looks a lot like,a ss pattern,but that was not what they have in mind for this camo,lol,
            also like the other colors used,as well,

            well I do like your idea,Patrick,but will not copy you on that,butt go for a street,with some shops,

                        Looking good there Monica, yes the leopard was in Afganistan used to serve with the now defunct ISAF.
