BEF camo pattern
« on: February 05, 2012, 07:42:10 AM »
Does any one have any colour images of the Three Colour Disruptive Pattern, British BEF camouflage of 1939?

I know it should be painted with Humbrol colours 30, 75 and 80, but I'm lacking a decent colouring guide.

Thanks guys. What I'm specifically searching for is a vehicle pattern that incorporated three tones; Khaki Green, Dark Green and Light Green.

Good luck finding that as it's possible that no 3 colour schemes were ever produced for the BEF! here are the definitive references though.

http://www.missing-lynx.com/reviews/britain/warpaintvol1bookreviewab_2.html Vol 2 covers the BEF.
