So I just recently bought a few crusaders and grants, however I can't seem to find the correct camo pattern. Specifically, I'm attempting to model the tanks off of 22nd armoured brigade during 2nd el alemein. Also what would be the correct arm of service number for them?

This is a typical pattern.

You could simply punt on any pattern and go with a light sand color.

1. Go to North Africa
2. Find a British tank…

*Ba-Boom-Chick!*

OK, I guess a third post like that is not going to be as funny. But it was my first thought………….

I'm working on a program of finding a pattern I think I can paint, then leafing through reference material until I find the model I own in that particular cammo scheme. Then I can triumphantly announce that that's the regiment and battle I wanted. If I start with the regiment and battle, it's a draft on my artistic ability which may not be honored.

Recently acquired Mike Starmer's nice camouflage guides. He still sells them.
