The blue used on British tanks in the desert seems to be controversial, some sources put it much greyer, like a french blue. I went with something closer to a sky blue, and in front of my backdrop I like it, it would blend in with the blue sky on the horizon.

I love Matildas, they're just such awesome looking machines. You add that Chaucer camo and I'm drooling.
You're right about that argument about the colours. It's been going on for decades. I won't call it a debate since there's no way to come to a conclusion on the issue. It's just like two old women sitting on a park bench arguing about the pigeons. Next it will be handbags at dawn.
If you think that the colour works then it does.

That's a wicked looking dio bud, and a very typical scene from North Africa.
Well done.
