                        I have an order for an M1 combat car and have not received it yet. I went through the net so I can prepare some paints but got negative results. I guess I will just have to wait for the kit to arrive. Thanks anyway.

                        What would your list of colors be that you would buy for stocking so that when you start a project, mostly if not all the colors you need would be there ready to use.

                        Recommended Tamiya colors for AFV

                        I am switching to the acrylic water based paint from the enamel. Is there anybody who could recommend a list mostly used for armour building? I live in a remote area and want to have a stock of Tamiya acrylic paints  that is commonly used for models of US WWII AFV's.
