Thank you,  THe charts were exactly what I wanted.  I'm sure I'll have more questions and it's nice to know that there are folks out there who are so helpful.

I stick with Testors enamel, and find it mixes very nicely.  If I need a color Testors does not make, I can mix it up from the colors they do.  Pick up a book for beginning artists at a library and read about colors and paints.  You might also pick up a color wheel at an artist's store.  They are usually quite inexpensive.

Question about paint colors??
Posted by Sawdustbob on Friday, February 18, 2011 4:49 AM

I have just started building models again after 30 years so some of my questions may be related to pretty basic info.  I have several kits that have lists of colors but instead of buying three or four differet brands of paint in the same color I wondered if there might be a list or chart of the different colors?  For example Testors color xxx is the same as Tamaya xxx or Model Power xxx.

Thank you for any help
