WWI GERMAN FELDGRAU

Does anybody know if the feldgrau colour was the same at WWI than at WWII.
If it wasn´t the same please give me references in Vallejo or Andrea´s paints.
I would like to know the same for Afrika Korps but this time WWII exclusively ´cause no DAK at WWI.
Let me see how many "Doctors" have we got around here.
Thanx everybody!

Re: WWI GERMAN FELDGRAU

I don´t knwo vallejo or andrea paints. But the colour was quite different. WWI was at the beginning a very greenish grey, even with a tinge of ocre; later (1916) more blueish.

WWII was more a deep green than a grey, the german word feldgrau is a trap.Later it became more a bluegreen.
use google pictures with "ww1 german uniform", you will find a lot of original items.
