I'm wondering if they are similar to Tamiya or gunze acrylics seeing as the reviewer used tamiya's thinners! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintsPhil Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Interesting that the WWII RAF set has interior grey green in it! Finally a decent match in acrylic....that hopefully sprays nicely... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave A Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 If they're any good, they're stunningly cheap, almost certainly worth a try... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brown Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Looks interesting. Who's going to take the plunge and buy/review them? Rick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking of getting the Vietnam set for a future F-4D build but by the time I get round to building one it'll be to late for a review 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Jephcott Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 The RAF set and Vietnam set have sold out already. I was looking forward to getting both of those but had to work yesterday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikesmodels Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I bought the Vietman set for my F4. Worst paint I have ever used. Extremely poor coverage even with a hairy stick. My advice avoid these, you of course may have better luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murray Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Bit late to the discussion, buuut I used the US navy colours to paint a late war Hellcat a while back. As I recall they worked well. They need thinning with a bit of Tamiya thinner as they were a bit thick out of the bottle but other than that they came out pretty good. I was wondering does anyone have any experience with their Luftwaffe desert colours? If Tamiya's range has taught me anything its that some paints, even from the same brand spray better than others.

Mariner1972 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Used the usn colours for my 1/350 uss Franklin aircraft. Clogged to many times for my liking in the airbrush ,even when thinned well. Had to have a high pressure to force it out. And when thinned I needed about 5000 coats. I'll stick with the Vallejo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
