Cold War US Army Color

These are Roco M60 series tanks upgraded with new turrets and side skirts from the Boley Abrams.  It was a late Cold War proposal for countries that did not want to spend the money on Abrams or wanted to upgrade their existing fleet.
I use Rust-Oleum 2x paint, it sticks well to most plastics.
This is Deep Forest Green but it has a bit of a gray tone to it in my opinion.  So it looks very different from WWII era Olive Drab.  I remember vehicles in colors like this in the 1970s and 1980s.
Again the paint is very true to the color of the cap.  I find these Rust-Oleum paints match each other batch after batch.  I like that because it might take months or even years to paint up a whole battalion.
