I agree with both of the above comments, but it depends on the scene you have in your head for the terrain you want to place your tank in.

I long to live in a world where chickens can cross the road without having their motives questioned

Hi, I've been working on a model of the M4A1 76mm and I was wondering what Tamiya Color to paint the tracks as, thanks.

The track blocks are black rubber or metal color when new and clean, but tracks in service tend to be earth colored. Take a look at bulldozer tracks on vehicles in construction sites. And just eyeball the color.

overall rubber black. end connectors, center guides metallic. if the "chevrons" on the track are steel thanmetallic gray. if they are rubber than rubber black. on all steel tracks i have been using dark iron and highlight with some metallic gray. BUT i lean toward artistic vs 100% accurate
