You mean the ID stripes for the different types of ammo? I believe APC and APCBC were the most common. The APDS sabot rounds were the best tank-killers, but from what I understand there were only limited supplies.

If this is for 1/35...good luck painting those stripes! I'm building an Achilles right now, gave this a shot, then gave up and just went with black. 

On the Bench: 1/32 Trumpeter P-47 | 1/32 Hasegawa Bf 109G | 1/144 Eduard MiG-21MF x2

On Deck:  1/350 HMS Dreadnought
