I've dug out my M706 kit and though of doing an MP vehicle for a convoy escort. Trouble is, my references provide little details that I've found. Any help on how such an M706 might look like, and what color should it be? Reading other threads on this topic suggested that M706 appearance including paint could vary widely.

I have a bunch of pictures on my home laptop. Message me your email and I can send them to you. Regarding the color, I have seen OD (varying shades, probably due to fading and/or different batches of paint) as well as an OD mixed with Black color that results in a very dark green. Which color will depend on your subject. I also have seen M706s with ACAV shields on the turret
