Hi Richard,

From my experience the markings on the Vehicles are the same pre Telic ( green and black) , the only theatre specific markings are the inverted cheverons.

so you could use the kit decals. the registration numbers wouldn't of changed and unit badges would remain the same just leave out the inverted cheverons and paint

green and black. Most of the Challengers I have seen out of middle east don't have the upgraded armour package and use the standard wavey track guards.

Thanks Dan.

I found some pictures on the net that sparked my interest in the two tone scheme.

I might see what I can do with the kit supplied decals.(Trumpeter kit) Does anyone know the exact colours for non desert scheme?

Once again thanks Dan, happy modelling all.

Hi Rich, For my Warrior I used Tamiya Nato Back and a custom mix of Nato green to which I added dark yellow and olive green.

I think it turned out pretty close.
