                        Yep. I've found that method works best with Tamiya acrylics, and it's exactly how I'm doing it for painting the cockpit parts.

                        If you're partial to Vallejo, their equivalency chart suggests Model Color #891 Intermediate Green

                        Greets all,

                        I'm working on a A2M2 Zero ("Zeke"), and the cockpit color is supposed to be cockpit green (a Tamiya color). As I intend to hand brush this part of the model, and Tamiya's acrylics are so lousy for brush painting, can anyone suggest a substitute? TIA...
