Need paint Info Vallejo
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, August 29, 2005 1:22 AM
Hi all

I am doing Dragons Nachtjager figures 6089
Now i use Vallejo paint
Does any one know of a colour cross reference for Gunze to Vallejo ?
Gunze is calling for the colors 303,24,27 and 74 for the SS-Leibermuster camo
The other uniform camo colors are 303,74,24 and 37
Helms covers 71,47 and 24

Are these colors right ?

Thanks ahead of time for help guys

Have you tried looking in the referance section? Someone, I can't remember who, frequently converts the two. There might be a chart.

You might want to try Colorado Miniatures website. They have a good refernce area with regards to Vallejo paints.

Here's the site flyerhank mentioned
http://www.coloradominiatures.com/index.asp?PageAction=Custom&ID=5
It doesn't menton those specific camo color but you might can come up with something useful.
This site turns Gunze into Model Air Vallejo color but not the standard.

It might be a better idea to convert GS to Federal Standards, and then from there convert to AV... here is the Vallejo site: http://www.acrylicosvallejo.com/ unfortunately due to the nature of the site I can't direct u directly to the relevant page, but there is a conversion chart (called Equivalencies) to FS, RLM & RAL under the Model Color section of Miniature and Model Colours...
