I am painting up some lend lease Matildas for my Russians. At least the first batches were delivered in Khaki Green #3.

I have that color from two different manufacturers and they are very different. The first is from Mig's British 1939-45 set, MIG-113 Khaki Green No 3. I originally painted my 3 Matildas this color and certainly khaki shade and overall rather lighter olive.

I subsequently got AK Interactive Caunter Scheme set with their Khaki Green No 3, AK 4035. But much different color, definitely more green to it.

So, for those of you who may have either or both of these paints, which is correct?

I am thinking the AK color may be the more accurate.

As always many thanks

Use the AK for the base colour, and the MIG one for the highlights.
