Ryan,

I agre with the above posts, but here are a few more ideas.

Assuming that you are using the Tamiya 251 D, the paint schemes on the box
art and side panels include some good indicative schemes.

The men in the Tamiya 251/1D box art are in a Waffen SS uniform typical of
Normandy.

Dragon's box art by Ron Volstrad, would be as a good a color ref as you will
find for WWII German figures. Dragon's web site has many of these
illustrations. Look for the ones with 1944 in the titles.

> I need a paint scheme for a 251/1 german half track. It will be in a
diorama in a small French town during WW II. Also, I need a few paint
schemes for regular german army uniforms and some SS uniforms. One thing I
have seen in books are german uniforms that look slightly green instead of
gray. If this can be explained, great!! Site refrences would be great to.
Any help would be fantastic.
