Dear Ken, it is a scan of a color slide in my collection (my scans are from my own collection [ Collection Akira Takiguchi ] unless otherwise stated).

Sorry to hijack the thread but do you own any armor or softskins color slides of SCW? I´m struggling with the Buntfarbenanstrich now and Erdgelb 22 seem too yellow and erdgelb 17 too brown (RAL 1005 and 8002) to me...TIA

Unfortunately none from SCW, but I think I have a couple of pre-WWII slides on which you can see a car/8,8cm Buntfarbenanstrich.

This is an early Agfacolor and its quality a bit inferior to the wartime one, it still keeps good color though.

That´s really a beauty of a picture and it confirms RAL 1005 as Buntfarbenanstrich Erdgelb, and also that some of the LW softskins were painted in Blue grey...Quite interesting for SCW aficionados.
Thank you very much Mr Takiguchi

It's clearly green-gray.
