II WW African corps
Posted by Anonymous on Wednesday, July 28, 2004 2:58 PM
Dear Friends,

I am new to scale modeling and still have to follow pain by number method and need the color codes of all paints for doing the paintwork.

I am working in a II WW African corps diorama and would appreciate very much of some one can tell me the Tamiya acrylic color code for German Army uniform, boots and belts for African Corps II WW.

Thanking you in advance,

Cheers,

Ajith

I noticed no one had replied to this post so I will try and help you..although I never paint my figures with Tamiya Acrylics. Afrika Corp uniforms were essentially a tan yellow, the belts would be a leather brown as well as the boots, although they did use black leather for boots at times. Tamiya does not have a tan yellow in their range of Acrylics and I would assume you would be able to add Tamiya Buff with wither their Flat Yellow, Dark Yellow, or even Desert Yellow with some Flesh color in there to tone it down. When using Acrylics for figures I only use Vallejo and Andrea Acrylic Model Colors. They have an anormous range of colors and are made for scale minatures. I would look into them. Hope this helped a bit.

Cheers
