dose anyone know what color did the Russians use as a primer


on the ww11 tanks, ?


As I do know with the Germans did use that red/brown color that i just lov,

From my research Moni, the Russians often doesn't use primer at all, due to the need to manufacture tanks as quickly as possible. Many times they went into action while the 4BO paint was still tacky!


However, I've seen examples of red oxide, light & dark grey so any of them would be ok.
