Color of austiran projectiles

Hello,
I have some 8cm Austrian projectiles and looking for their original color, I have not found anything specific in my documentation.
In fact, what was the color of those shrapnel shells?
Thank you

Hello,
Waiting for Fert for this question about austro-hungarian 8cm shells !
The first is a 8cm shrapnel M08 and the other could be 8cm M15 "Granat Schrapnell" so colors could be different.
Regards

Hello,
AH shell was often not painted. Only some one has rustproof paint ( different shade from light blue to violet). Marking on shell was as in table.
if shells are shrapnels, the one with 1 driving band is a M13.
please look inside, 8cm M14 GS have not thread at mouth.

all the best

I also have these 3 projectiles painted red anti-rust.
In fact, they are not painted but only greased ?


Thx

Hello,
this isn't the AH anti rust, as you can see it is also inside the rust hole, so not original.

some one was only greased some one was painted with anti rust:
this is a bad pics of AH 7.5cm M15 shells: far right 2x only grased GS M15 shell and very far right light blue anti rust M14 shell
