I am looking to paint a German 77mm in pre-war colors anywhere from 1910 to 1914. i would prefer prior to mobilization. I am also looking for a photo or drawing of the limber. |

I will look one up for you. But in 1910 were they already gray and not ultramarine blue anymore. The colour is really called so.. Maybe the prussian artillery Department should open a copyright claim on GW? Greetings |

Ad than in light blue and starting with the war in gray. Here is the basic rule: For 1915 and later (figures with the stahlhelm get arti in camo. Figures with pickelhaube in cover get light blue and figures without cover for the pickelhaube get ultramarine arti. I hope this helps
