Hi all!
This is my first post in the Warships forum, altough I've got a couple of thousands in other Armorama forums.
Can anybody hel me finding out the Z or Zebra camo scheme used for the PT boats of the Elco series?
Thanks a lot in advance

The old Squadron "PT Boats has both a picture and a color painting of the Zebra pattern. It was only experimental and on a few bots. It was too difficult to do for a full sized boat. If you're planning this for a 72nd scale...well you have my respect but you one "Clazy-man". I'ld send you a scan, but my scanner no longer cooperates with my computer and I can't afford to do anything about it
