Colors for the MG equipment - Help

Post by Maus_Spain »

Hello. I`m planning to repaint all my l.M.G equiment and I`d like to know please the RAL numbers of the very basic colors for the 42-43 Ostfront. I want to repaint amunition boxes, the barrel box and also two drums and the carrier for em. Thanks!

You can't really go wrong doing them in RAL 6006 (feldgrau/grey-green), or RAL 7021 (schwarz grau/panzer grey/dark grey). Use both for a bit of variety amongst the ammo tins and drums if you have several, i.e. some greygreen and some dark grey. If you strip them back to bare metal use a red oxide type primer so when they get scratched this shows here and there...

Edit: Both of these colours are still available from anywhere that works from RAL charts, in UK B&Q or various car paint mixing places do them for example..
