Vallejo Model Color - Military Yellow

Military Yellow is a warm, muted dark-yellow that's the backbone of German WWII armour schemes and a superb base for sandy, dusty tones generally. It's earthy enough to look convincing on a tank yet clean enough to shade and highlight with ease.

Lay it flat, add camo over the top, then weather down with earth pigments for a tank that looks like it's rolled through half of Europe.
