Vellejo to Tamiya color conversion...

Post by redfinger »

So I have a few Hasegawa kits and I have been told that the paint numbers in the refer to Tamiya colors, is this true?

Additionaly, after several years of painting mini's for table tob gaming I have aquired quite the collection of Vellejo paints, so instead of going and buying a whole new set of paints, does anyone happen to know what the color coversion are?

Thanks,

Red

The first and simplest method is to look at vallejo's own web site.....

http://www.acrylicosvallejo.com/

go to the model colour section and look under the equivalencies section.
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage
to change the things I cannot accept, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those I had to kill today because they got on my nerves.

And help me to remember when I'm having a bad day and it seems that people are trying to wind me up, it takes 42 muscles to frown, 28 to smile
and only 4 to extend my arm and smack someone in the mouth!
