Post by dane61 »

I have bourght a 10$ airbrush, and have been playing with my sons warhammer-paint trying learn painting with it. Now I will try to give a tank new coleurs.
I need to know the right numbers of 'vallejo model air paint' for german tanks, dunkel-gelb - brown - and green. I would also like the correct paint-numbers for russian tanks, and american tanks.

I have been searching the net but I seem to come up with different numbers everytime.

Hi dane,

the question you've asked is not so easy to answer.
Originally was german basiccolour dark yellow RAL 7028, but they doesn't exist today anymore.
Vallejo itself has different colours dark yellow, but they match in my opinion not really. I've used Tamiya XF 60 as german basiccolour dark yellow. To recommend is the red-brown primer of Vallejo RAL 8012, contained in the catalog as ModelAir acrylic polyurethane primer.
Here is the link: http://www.acrylicosvallejo.com/gb/downloads.html
The remaining colors of the three-color camouflage was painted by the units themselves, this led to different shades.
Read my post about german WW II camouflage:

About Russian and American camouflage should write other specialists.
