I am going to paint up some Bundeswehr units and I was wondering if I could get some suggestions for color and brand that you all use. Also is Landwehr units a different color then Bundeswehr units.

Thanks.

Troops, or armor?

Oliv Gelb for the latter. Testor's makes it in enamel.

I am using 3mm, Troops there will be, but not too much detail at that scale.

panzerbaer.de excellent source for color images/markings, etc of the Bundeswehr. Same color used for Landwehr as Bundeswehr

My 2mm BW are done in Humbrol NATO green with a bit highlighting. In this scale it looks sufficiently like Gelboliv, and is a different shade of green to the Russian stuff.
