                        Color Cross Reference Between Model Master and Gunze Sangyo
                        Posted by Anonymous on Friday, September 29, 2006 4:16 PM
                        Hi All,

                        Does anyone know of a color cross reference between Model Master enamels and acrylics and Gunze Sangyo colors?

                        Also is there any cross reference between Model Master old and new stock numbers?

                        I'm building an Italeri ACH-47A Chinook helicopter gunship and the instructions call for MM #1510 Blue and MM#1524 Green. I can't find those numbers anywhere, but I suppose the correct colors still exist.  There's no FS #reference.

                        I prefer acrylics because they clean up so well and airbruch right out of the bottle.

                        Any help would be greatly appreciated.

                        John

                        You may have to make a multi-step comparison to get from one product to another if there is no direct comparison,

                        #1510 Blue and #1524 Green are the Italeri stock numbers equivalent to Testors' 1/4-oz enamels #1110 Blue (gloss) and #1124 Green (gloss).
