Sturmtiger crew uniform colours?

[Matt P]

Hi all,

Looking to start a new diorama of a late war (44-45) Sturmtiger and crew. However I am confused as to whether the uniforms should be field grey or black. Most sources say assault gun crews wore field grey panzer uniforms, but some photos show black clad crews.

 

Any definitive info would be appreciated

All I got is a photo that clearly shows the black panzer uniform with skulls

 

 

 

They were grouped into independent companies.  Official name of the vehicle was Panzersturmmörser so that must explain their association to be Panzertruppen and not the Sturmartillerie?

Thanks for the reply. I had seen that picture but not the organisational chart on panzerworld. I'll stick to black then
