Nice KGR!!!  I like the colors you use, they look great on the model I'm just waiting to see the green and also some weathering on it. And why not a nice base with some figures to add life to the diorama...  Keep on the good work master...  |

Well Dan actually this Orange shade is the Soviet Sand! it is called " Soviet Brown #2" and yes it looks more orange than beige as we are acustomed to see but that is how the scheme shows it. I did not wanted to use any US sand colors to respect the differentiation between NATO and Warsaw colors.
Gabriel.. for the weathering I am planning on adding some shading and ltle wear with pastels and a light coat of dust first to clear up a litle the colors and blend them together. Plus all the details that have to be painted before weathering!!
