Wow, I can't wait to hear the reaction to my next build:

A Tamiya JS3, colors picked out by my 7 year old daughter.  She asked me to build her a tank for her room, I said "sure, honey"-- any time my girl is interested in what I'm doing it's a great day.

Then she hit me with her color requirements, let's just say they don't include Russian green.

I will keep the colors secret until I unveil it, it's my next build after the Sherman WIP I have going.  I think it might look pretty cool.

There was once a story of "The Mad Sergeant" at Aberdeen who went around one day with a stencil and painting DAK palm trees on every German vehicle there...

The day I was there, on my way to DC way back when, the German stuff was all painted in some kinda grey if never seen before or since...

Not german dk yellow but maybe some bizarre Czech colors?

 

If this story is honestly true, then this could only have been an example of sabotage by foreign workers!

 

Some bizarre scheme there--- that Bosnian M18 looks like a Polaris Hunting ATV....
