Regarding the British, I´ve made this guide some time ago. Hope you will find it useful:http://www.thewargamespot.com/bef-g3g4-scheme-painting-guide/Regards,
Whilst I agree light /medium grey shows the details of the model better the actual German Panzers were painted a dark grey for a reason - the idea was to hide in the shadows of trees etc - I am not sure it worked that well in RL but that's what I read.
