Tamiya are probably one the most commonly available lines of hobby paints in the US as they are usually carried by R/C hobby shops, and we all know Tamiya is a dominant force in the R/C business.Don't get too hung up on the finer points, just build it as you see fit. There's probably very few people who have accurately modelled RFC rigging and lived to tell the tale.

Urban's Colour Reference Charts, Humbrol vs Tamiya, Xtracolor, Polly S, Revell, Gunze Sangyo, Model Master I can remember Ray Rimmel's article in Scale Models, years ago, discussing PC10, also his various WWI model articles. It seems that PC10 could be a dark green or a dark chocolate colour with an infinite number of shades in between. A lot would depend on how strictly the mix instructions were adhered to, but for observers the problem is that it is different colours in different light. I've been to flying evenings at Old Warden when they've had the Pup, Triplane, SE5a etc on display and you'd be pushed to nail the colour down. In late 1990s Humbrol has moved to the much improved Super Enamel range. The Super Enamel paints use the same colour numbers, but have refined formula with very small pigment more suitable for airbrush application. However, with the introduction of Super Enamel some of the old colours losted in this chart have been discontinued.Humbrol Acrylic Paint is ideal for many paint tasks around the home. Developed for plastic kit modellers, the paint is water based, fast drying and safe in use. Simple to mix colours to obtain further shades too, and the paint is suitable for airbrushing. The perfect general paint for all craft and modelling uses. Humbrol provides a Colour System Binder which contains instructions of how to interblend the paints of the Super Enamel range to obtain the discontinued shades as well as selected authentic colours. Perhaps. But IMO if it's visible at all in 1/72, or without a magnifier in 1/48, it will look daft. Can anyone suggest any Humbrol or Tamiya colours to approximate doped unbleached and bleached linen for German WWI aeroplanes? I tried humbrol 74 for the unbleached linen but it looks way too yellow? FWIW I building a Fokker Dr.1 and have a Pfalz E.1 in the queue.
