Hi Lee,

I use cellulose paint, I just take in a colour chip and they mix however much I need. But saying that I have been using enamel paint to restore a pair of binoculars. However, I have had limited success due to the wife not letting me use her oven

, they have no consideration these Women !!!!!

What type of paint are you talking of, Acrylic, Enamel or ???.

Hello Paul

I use acrilics as they are quick drying and colour range is good.

Lee,
I use the Spanish Vallejo paints for my sdkfz 222 and figures. Excellent products. They do a packet which contains all the possible panzer colours available plus a special white and special red for use on German stencils. The complete list of Vallejo flesh colours is larger than all the Tamiya and Humbrol total colours combined. If I knew how to use the flesh colours I would be into figures in a big way.

Hi Lee.
I have used both the the paint and the pigments on 1/16 and can highly recomend them, though i have not tried them on the larger scale as yet.
