U.S. Vietnam uniform colors
Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, August 5, 2004 9:53 PM
What company has the closest match to the color of US infantry uniforms?

I would preferably like it to be from Tamiya of ModelMasters but whatever works.

Olive drab is probably too brown. You want something a lot greener. Actually, I've used Model Master RLM83 light green and found that it works pretty well on jungle fatigues as a base color. Once you're done with a wash and weathering, it looks VERY good.
