In the latter part of WW2, the British Army tended to have
home-produced equipment in Khaki Drab, and lend-lease stuff in US Olive
Drab. I would thing that might lead to e.g. Motor Batallions with O.D.
half-tracks and K.D. Universal Carriers. Early in the war, British
tank
units in France used mixtures of tank types, sometimes with different
variants of the official scheme on different types.
A good source of unfamiliar schemes is "Blitzkrieg: Armour,
camouflage and markings" by Steven J Zaloga.

or a
brush while I do it. Field camoflage is most often a "field" expediency
so it
varies widely
