I have seen a photo dating from the 1941 period of two abandoned T-34's in color that seemed to shade them in the lighter field/forest green, but this would be hard to call as a final word due to reasons previoulsly mentioned./r/modelmakers rules - Please read before posting. While they would give a good impression, these films tended to darken green colors due to their properties. Color photos from WWII would be misleading at this point due to the color films in use at the time. Other vehicles of Soviet manufacture I saw on my recent deployment to the Balkans had an original base color green, under their more recent paint jobs, more closely matching forest green or field green in the FS standards. As far as the painting history of the vehicles goes, who knows.


They were displayed on pedestal mounts and painted in a shade pretty close to the xtracolor Russian tank green. Among them were some T-34's (one was a T-34/76 model 1943) purportedly among the first to enter Berlin. A buddy of mine who was stationed in the Berlin Brigade once upon a time was able to visit the "dark side"before the wall fell and brought back some interesting pics of displayed items.
