Modern Micro Armour - NATO
Moderns mostly from Heroics and Ros
This page has a load of photos of some modern NATO stuff, including Brits, West Germans/Dutch, generic NATO and US Army. I picked up the way to paint the three-tone NATO scheme from the very useful (but hard to find) website www.panzerbaer.de, which has details on how the scheme works on every individual vehicle in the German, and also many other nations inventories.
The NATO 3-tone vehicles here are all painted in an undercoat of as a spray, with a network of black stripes painted on top, followed by some blobs of brown (which I think was GW Graveyard Earth). The whole lot are then drybrushed with GW Bleached Bone, varnished in ArmyPainter Dark Tone and then matt varnished with .
I've also got some photos of Polish-painted H&R 6mm infantry and tanks that are online here, and some pics of modern helicopters with rotor discs online here, plus a load of Mainforce infantry here and some Middle Eastern forces and insurgents here

M1 US tank - I inherited this colour scheme when picking them up 2nd hand, so have only done some more highlighting - I'm not convinced it bears any real relation to any in the field schemes
M1 in a different scheme - and from a different manufacturer maybe ?
