| Subject: | US WW2 Overcoat colour? | |
| Date: | Jan 27, 2003 |
| From: | Warrink | |
I'm preparing the two overcoat wearing chaps from dragon's 101st
airborne set for use with our hetzer, but I can't figure out which
colour the overcoats should be. I've seen both a light, orange brown,
like the brown trousers, and a dark brown, maybe even with a hint of
green. From what I can see in photographs and modern reference pictures
the darker ones were (far?) more common. However, on the box art they're
orange brown, and Steve Zaloga used orange brown for his figure as well
(the one in the recent sherman crocodile article in MM). Is there anyone
out there who can explain this?
