What other colors can you use for overspray. How much did you thin the paint? Thank you for sharing.

Well, DBII the thinning ratio was about 70% thinner to 30 of paint, wanted it to be thin and was carefully sprayed in a light layer.
Other colours would be black, browns and the colours that you have already used at full strength, which you would lighten to varying degrees to create differing shades. It does depend on the subject and what you are trying to depict or create. Hope this helps! If you have any more questions please ask.

Oh, and thanks Guys...
 
The dirtying up process is coming along nicely, I am using pastel chalks, browns and black with some dry brushing, using the Dark yellow.

Here are the first shots....

I agree.This is the FG1250 UR sighting device mounted in a Panther Ausf.G commander's cupola.
"UR" stands for "Ultrarotstrahlung"

Fw-189 and He 219 were named "Uhu". The Gereman "uhu" means an eagle owl in English.So it is possible ,although I haven't heared about it.
 
Yes it is a Sd.Kfz.251/20 with Uhu infra-red spotlight.

Source unknown.

BTW. Very nice model of the Sd.Kfz.251.. THX for posting here TT.
