Aussie desert carrier colours

[Bob Moseley (RIP)]

Hi Justin - if I can't find an original colour somewhere on the vehcle, I obtain the colour from a modeller's site. They did all the intensive research and then correlated the colours with available model paints. I have followed this path and obtained the model paint that I then gave to my paint company to replicate. In the case of "Light Stone", it equates to Humbrol Model Paint No. 121.

You have other options depending on the theatre of war.

North Africa 1940 - three colour diagonal bands disruptive pattern
Base colour Light Stone - Humbrol 121
Disruptive pattern Light Grey - Humbrol 64
Disruptive pattern Slate Grey - Humbrol 31

North Africa 1942 - two colour disruptive pattern
Base colour Light Stone - Humbrol 121
Disruptive pattern Dark Green - Humbrol 75

North Africa December 1942 -two colour disruptive pattern
Base colour Light Stone - Humbrol 121
Disruptive pattern Terra Cotta - Humbrol 70

Something to keep you going for a while.

Bob
