Title: Looking for a paint match
Post by: ACremers on March 18, 2015, 12:33:40 AM

Hi, I bought this fleet off eBay, I'm wondering if anyone recognizes it and can help me find this metallic green colour. I don't believe it is a gw colour. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I would try taking it to a hobby store and see if you or the guys behind the counter could match it up.

I took it into my local gw independent retailer and they couldn't match it up with anything p3 or gw. I just figured someone in this community might recognize the paint scheme.

I will have to travel down to Washington to see if i can find some Tamiya paint at one of the hobbytown usa stores.  Thanks for the suggestion.

Might be Testors. Hobytown USA in my area stocks that brand too.

I picked up some testors from another hobby shop. Custom metal flake green. Going to give it a try tonight. Hopefully it's the right one.
