Amphib Measures

Post by raggs »

So I'm lazy and didnt scroll back thru this thread. But I did look thru the "Ship camo database" and Tracys site, looking for LST & LSM late war "Green" measures illustrated out and came up blank.

Can someone point me in the right direction to get patterns for LST, LSM type craft if there is one avail?

Thanks,

Paul

You're probably looking for pattern 20L. DOn't have time tonight to look for it, but I'll try tomorrow; I think I've got the LCM sheet, not sure about the others.

Russ- AWESOME link, quite the "work waster" . Thank You.

Tracy- I was actually looking for 5L & 8L for all the old Skywave 1/700 LST & LSM kits,
but finding 17L is sweet. Do you think it's the scheme on LCIL772 on Navsource;
