Acrylics for Phantom II, was Tamiya Paints

Jan 06, 2006 3 Replies

As there are apparently no bottled equivalents for Tamiya's AS -13, -14, or -15, does anyone know of the best bottled acrylics for Vietnam era USAF green, olive green, or tan? Or better yet, any of the right colors for a Vietnamese era camouflaged Phantom II?

for an exact set of FS 595a numbers for colors - BTW, they are 30219, 34102, 34079 and 36622 for the SEA scheme- and on Urban's site there are crossreferences to most brands of paint, acrylic and enamel both. Very handy!

what about Xtracolor? They have enamels and acrylics covering the SEA schemes (and a lot more) Ingo

*time is an enemy*

FS30219, FS34102, FS34079, FS36622, IIRC...

Gunze: H310 (tan), H303 (green), H309 (another green), H311 (gray that looks like a dirty white)

Lifecolor: UA015 (tan), UA002 (green), UA091 (the other green), UA021 (the dirty white), Bayer Aspirin (you'll need that with the Lifecolors)

And Humbrols 118, 117, 116, 28, FWIW...
