@limburger, the first vehicles that were sent to Africa were still in the European Panzer grey, a heavy coat of dry dust will be fine for the summer blitzkrieg through France and the early African campaign.

For the infantry, not sure if tropical uniforms were issued before or after they moved to Africa, but shirt sleeve order and caps would work for summer of ’40 and early Africa, just say the supply ship was sunk on route to Africa. I wouldn’t go full grognard if your Germans were the wrong shade of grey-green on the table!!
