Hi James,
for what it's worth I seem to recall reading that the shadows cast on the lower hull by the suspension negated any camo effects of the lighter colors.I have only seen upper hull schemes on real shermans,and the pre-painted collectables seem to stay with that scheme also.
Yes I know, thanks for muddying the waters....
Dave
