discussion of RTT in another forum i frequent pointed out this website with color hexcodes and the equivalent 'brand name' color designations for the major hobby paint lines.

Minibits - Paint hexcode chart

this should be of great help in figuring out what paint varieties to buy to duplicate the official color schemes (or at least getting very close)


speaking of which.. this topic might be a good one to pin, so it doesn't get lost.

edit: Tamiya brand charts:

any other brands i need to look for?

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I was looking at those codes thinking "What are these?" lol

First class! I was wondering what in blazes those codes were!

Arg, why couldn't they list the Tamiya paint line(s)....they've become my main paint source...

Man, wish I'd know about this earlier. Went to buy paint today using only the info in the book and didn't get anywhere.
