Hi, I am lokoing for a paint guide (with pictures) for the British Cromwell tank.
Can't find it on the official FoW site or internet.
I use Vallejo paint if anyone has any idea which colours to use.
Thanks in advance!

It always helps to ask somewhere and then look again.
Now I found this:
Russian Uniform (924)
Metal helmets and tank colour

Here is a link to a painting guide for British Shermans. They used the same color scheme as the Cromwells:

When I did my Cromwells I used an even simpler plan.
Russian Green base coat
Highlight with light coat of Green Ochre
Paint tracks, road wheel edges, tools, stowage, and crew
Black wash
Black line
Decals
Highlight with tan earth around tracks, lower hull, and decals for road dirt/dust
Seal with flat varnish/dull coat
Managed to win the painting contest at Spring Recruits FOW tournment the army. Unfortunately I did not play as well :-)
