    Hi everyone! After priming my first 6mm Jagdpanzers miniatures, it's time to start painting them. A search on internet reveals a wide variety of camouflage pattern. Which one is the one used most of the time?

    I read this paint scheme was being used in defensive position and thus more towards the end of war. Does anyone have more info since when this pattern was used and was there some spesific reason for it to be used or was it just thought it was better? Thanx!

    An old question and I got an answer saying the "ambush camouflage" was more and more used towards the end of the war...

    Licht und Schatten Tarung (light and shadow camouflage)German Hetzer tank destroyer, painted in dapple camouflage pattern to mimick blending of tree shadows. With Hetzer compact size for concealment, it excelled at armor ambushes.
