Hi Chris
Here's the pics of the camo I promised. I only managed to get the markings painted on to the one side so there's still a little bit to do. Also the light for photography isn't ideal today.

It's easy to feel a little bit uneasy about the work at this point, as the paint job is at it's most garish. After some fading though I'm confident that everything will be 'tied together'.
About the camouflage...
There's not a lot of the camouflage that can be seen from period photographs. The only parts that are visible are parts of the schurtzen and some of the rear plate. I took those 2 areas as 'typical' and tried to expand that 'style' to the entire tank. What you see is the result.
I'm back at work now, so no more updates for a while, but hopefully next time I'll have both turret numbers and national crosses on and then I can move on to weathering and finishing up.
Thanks for looking
