Big Joe Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 hi everyone new here got myself some Airfix 1/32 US Marines the other day thinking it would be simple but I do not use Airfix paint I use tamiya paint I have tried looking it up what tamiya paint to use for em but most evolve mixing and stuff and this may sound noobish but I dont like doing that😁. I have tried using converters from airfix to tamiya charts and I just dont get it. if anyone has a idea how to paint would really like to know. cheers this is the sort I am trying to do http://thepacific.wikia.com/wiki/Uniforms_depicted_in_The_Pacific http://thepacific.wikia.com/wiki/Uniforms_depicted_in_The_Pacific thanks everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KonaDawg Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Vallejo have some pretty decent offerings that cover most of the US armed forces of ww2. I mention these because they are probably your best bet if you don't like mixing paints. Tamiya paints are great but I have never used them for figure painting as they tend to be (IMHO) more aimed at aircraft and tanks. There are also some pretty decent guides around the web as to which colours you should be aiming for. Hope that helps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
