michael_wittman44 Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Are there any good sites that deal with markings as well as cammouflage methods aimed at helping the ww2 modeler. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Dorosh Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Oddly enough, no. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Emrys Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 Your best bet is to haunt well-stocked hobby shops looking for books and magazines that cover the subject. Those are in plentiful supply, although the quality and reliability of the product can vary quite a bit. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Grey Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 If you´re just interested in Allied vehicles (and especially Canadian) try www.armouredacorn.com - very detailed and good drawings of tanks and vehicles. A few modern ones are on it, too... I hope they´ll expand their site until it covers all of the markings and camouflage, but that´s only a guess. Rhight now the best choice is to hunt the web (as I did for months) or buy a few good books. Very good are the ones from Waldemar Trojca (scale drawing as well) and the books from www.militaria.net.pl. Should I find more sites I´ll post them here if you wish. It´s a topic I´m very interested in, too - and getting conclusive information is rather difficult, if not impossible. Maybe we should start a research project aiming at finding such sites or - still better - make our won and put all the info from the books together for people who can´t afford them. Who´s with me? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigduke6 Posted September 27, 2005 Share Posted September 27, 2005 This Russian site is pretty good, although far from exhaustive: http://www.battlefield.ru/misc/camo_r.html The good thing is you can read the vehicle types and so get a general idea of the caption. If your computer can do Russian, and so can you, then you're in like flint. An even better site is here: http://www.armor.kiev.ua/Tanks/WWII/ I doubt you can navigate it as it's in Russian too, but there's practically every Russian combat vehicle there. (And a lot more) Here's some of the basic subheadings, there is plenty for a modeler there: http://www.armor.kiev.ua/Tanks/WWII/T34/ http://www.armor.kiev.ua/Tanks/WWII/T34_85/ http://www.armor.kiev.ua/Tanks/WWII/KV/ http://www.armor.kiev.ua/Tanks/WWII/IS2/ http://www.armor.kiev.ua/Tanks/WWII/SU76/ http://www.armor.kiev.ua/Tanks/WWII/SU152/ http://www.armor.kiev.ua/Tanks/WWII/T70/ There is also a ton of information, but again, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
