    But I do have some GREEN garden wooden structures that are the correct colour !!!! The next thing is a T34 QUILT COVER !
    Good god sir are there no depths to your madness.

    Now i did ask the salesmen about dunkelgrau but the trickster sold me the Alfa in the wrong grey.

      You could do the Valentine in desert colours, that is light stone ( a light sand colour) which sometimes had blue black disruptive camoflage. Caunter went out before Valentines arrived in the desert. Alternatives are Brown (scc2?) or green for Russian vehicles, perhaps we should have a poll for the colour scheme!:rolling:

              I was led to believe that the Caunter Scheme was changed in October 1941 but the Valentines had been sent over with the Caunter Scheme on, in June/July 1941?? I'm no expert but I know the Caunter Scheme always generates a lot of discussion :smiling3: :thumb2:

              Aghh sod it Bob! Just paint it 4BO mate:tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy::smiling6::smiling5:

                        Some were painted desert pink & green.......:thinking:
                        Steve, you may well be right, but I haven't seen a picture of one in Caunter, A9 & A10 cruisers were & they look similar, same suspension. Anyone got a picture of a Valentine in Caunter? Certainly be a nice change from the usual.
