>Here's a question I've been trying to find an answer but all helps I've got only increased the doubt about what is wrong. Tamiya Chieftain instruction is said to use a two green scheme camouflage (XF5 and XF61) .These two greens are both close to two Bristh colors Mediun Green and Deep Bronze green.
>The problem is that we can find hundreds of picture with this light green and black or overall dark bronze green Cheiftains but zero picture with those two greens. Is there any one who has a reference that Tamiya did not "invented" that scheme.On the same instruction only it's written that this two green camouflage were used on UK and Canada.So folks of these two places, Have you ever seen something like that?

Now this is hardly a definitive answer, but I have nevers seen two
greens on a Chieftain and I've never seen two greens on any of the
Chiefs that served in Canada. The BATUS MBTs are all sand and green (at
least those I have seen).
