LaGG-3 Camouflage



I'm kicking off with three Lavochkin LaGG-3 fighters as a test bed for painting the rest of the Soviet aircraft. I've given them an undercoat in Halfords Grey Primer and then a couple of brush coats of AK2255 Grass Green as a base coat. I'm now trying to find a good shade for the black / dark green camouflage pattern shade, which wasn't included in the AK Interactive Early War Soviet paint set. 

The front runners are Vallejo German Grey, Flames of War Camo Dark Green and Foundry Phlegm Green Shade, all of which are similar to the different dark camouflage colours used on Soviet aircraft. I may well mix and match these when painting the other fighters but will probably use the German Grey on the LaGG's.
