Volksgrenadiers Ardennes
Posted by Mattcooke on Wednesday, January 9, 2008 9:57 AM
Hi guys,

I plan on doing a diorama set in Ardennes 1944 with a Kingtiger. I also plan on adding these figures:



On the boxart it looks like the color of the uniforms are mostly green but when I look at the back there are numbers of Gunze colors and the trenchcoats are in Field Grey. Which color is it now? Sorry I don't know much about German uniforms.

Thanks in advance,
Daniel :)

German Field Grey actually has a green tone to it.
