PhantomBigStu Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Having trouble with this colour, loath to buy the lifecolor one as lifecolor paints dry out over time so looking for something close in the Humbrol, Revell, Vallejo or Xtracrylix ranges. Anyone able to help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julien Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Not had an issue with lifecolor paints if stored correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabba Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 According to the chart that is on dstorm.eu FS20400 is covered by Xtracolor as X145. I don't know if this is available as an acrylic though. American aircraft colour chart for D Storm is here:- https://dstorm.eu/pages/color/usa.html where there are a multitude of paint manufacturers.

PhantomBigStu Posted September 13, 2021 Author Share Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) Should clarify not just the drying issue why I'm reluctant to order, can't think of anything else in the range I might need to get to justify the postage edit: well this is awkward thanks to @Jabba's suggestion went down a rabbit hole that ended with me looking at Xtracylix light stone and Vallejo Iraqi Sand (which is coded similar FS30475) as substitutes and I discovered I purchased the Vallejo it back in November.....😳😳 had no recollection of that but didn't handle the second lockdown quite as well as the first. Thanks anyway. Edited September 13, 2021 by PhantomBigStu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bo hermansen Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 Xtracolor are not a perfect match on the FS 595 color chip, WEM`s (Now Sovereign models colorcoats) 30400 ere however a perfect match. Bo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hook Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Vallejo Air 71.348 is a match as well. HTH, Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
