Can anyone suggest the Humbrol (or other) colour that matches the greenish khaki shade of the Polish uniforms at the start of WWII? Thanks. |

I'll check my notes in a bit, but I should have the color reference for Vallejo. Phil |

I prefer Vallejo MC921 English Uniform ( Humbrol 26 ) for Polish wool uniform. There was also less common summer uniform, I think from flax, that was khaki-buff colour used in reserve units 1939. Wojtek Bulhak

Use a green primer/base coat with Humbrol 26 or Vallejo 921. |
