                        I believe I used Tamiya "Sky"  XF-21 and Tamiya Light Blue XF-23 on my 72nd scale Snowberry, and  that was some years ago.   Or use those as a base to mix.  It shouldn't be too hard.    Those colors worked well for me.

                        I know that really doesn't help with the mixing of Tamiya.

                        Hi, this doesn't answer the question, but the info might be helpful, esp. from John Snyder.

                        Hello,

                        I'm starting my Revell 1/72 HMCS Snowberry and I would like to know if anyone has a good formula for mixing Tamiya paints to match those colours- I'm not having luck finding anything on the net. I know there is a Lifecolour set, but I'd prefer to use Tamiya paints if possible.

                         

                        Thanks,

                         

                        Rob
