Morning Stefano,

Have a look here for a paint colour conversion chart: http://www.ipmsstockholm.org/colorcharts/colorcharts_2.asp

While Tamiya paints are excellent for vehicles, and are fine when starting to paint figures, when you get more addicted to figure painting you may want to consider changing to a brand like Vallejo which seems to have a finer pigment and is better suited to figure painting. Model Railway Specialists in Plumstead are (as far as I know) the only place in CPT stocking Vallejo.

hallo Rudi

i had a look at the comparison charts you have suggested very usefull !!!
i know Mike Trow at mrs from many years i was unawere that he stocks vallejo paints he has a lot of other colours like humbrol and tamiya that he gets from jeffery stain importers
by the way JS Sales importers has closed to the pubblic and only sales to dealers now as is little factory shop is not longer in use .
