Olive Green XF-58 is simialr to Testors MM Russian Armor Green, or JN Green XF-11 is suggested often.

 

F is for FIRE, That burns down the whole town!

U is for URANIUM... BOMBS!

N is for NO SURVIVORS...

someone recommended XF-51 Khaki Drab,i liked it and used it for my JSU-152 basecoat.Shades varied most greens will do,it's all about expermentation and what you like..You need to take into consideration your modulating colors,filters,and weathering also.

Most of time, people start with Tamiya XF-61 Dark Green for Russian Armor. That's what I do.

It was during war time, the actual color will vary from picture to picture. Be creative. Mix it with some Olive Drab if XF-61 is to green and too bright for you.
