Did/do all German Leopard 2A5s have the threetone NATO scheme( brown,green,black) or  could I  get away with a  Nato Green and Nato Black two tone scheme? Thanks

Well, you can do what you want, but the first question I'd have is "why?". If the answer is that you're out of Brown, I'd say that you should reconsider. Technically, I don't think you could get away with it, as I've only seen three-color Leopards. Especially the recent models.

Plus, I guarantee you that it'll look "British", as they were using that scheme for years. I say go with the three-color.

Thanks for the replies. I was just wondering, I already have the two colors down and looks good, I guess I'm being lazy.   In alot of the pics it seems hard to pick out/see the brown color, then again it may be the color blindness kicking in.LOL
