For Sumpfmuster 44, I would suggest a basic coat of Yellow Orange (No. 133) with stripes of Forest Green (No. 38) and spots of Chestnut (No. 28) Hey – I got four kids – I have lots of experience with Crayola!

The discerning modeler knows that for the Waffen-SS, one would use cray-pas. "Nothing but the best, for the Waffen-SS".

For the Autumn "Peadot," I go with "caramel" color and for the "spring" I would try the "Green pea." Show is the WIPs!

You can't see the numbers that tell you what color to use.

I'm pretty sure they're coming out with "Nazis in Springtime" color collections. Everybody does these days.
