color chart

anyone have a color chart for panzer colors? i have one for ships that i drop into photoshop and eyedropper to get close colors. think i got that from steel navy site but haven't found anything similar for tanks.

Get a copy of Panzer Colours by Bruce Colver. Its around at reasonable cost and spot on with all the details.

thanks. got to thinking after i posted this that i have the panzer color books and the squadron publication books. i can just scan them in. hell i can just paint the poly-s color swatch on an index card, let it dry and scan that in since i tend to create 3d models from the plastic model i am simultaneously building.

practicing on a jgpz-iv/L70 1/35 and just board an air brush. can't wait to start on the 1/35 K-5 RR gun.

I know of guys cutting kits up to get cross-sections of fuselage etc.
Certainly helps to feel some shapes but you need an accurate model.
