Just been looking at white ensign models site as they have started doing a range of armour
paints, they have also got a US gulf war colour paint which is good for us in the UK as the only place to get this was hannants who will not send paints in the post unless with a kit.

Has anyone used these paints what are they like? the cream interior colour looks good
what about the german grey I'd like to see one a bit bluer in colour

well heres the link armor paint range

Paints came today in the best packing for paints I've ever seen inside a resealable bag,bubble wrap and paper padding/catolouge,the paints come in 100mm tinlets like humbrol/revell ect
opened the german grey up and was expecting the lump at the bottom like all enamels
not so looks ready to spray without mixing however you will be able to mix it down futher
I presume,
Hopefully I'll be using the US desert yellow on my 113 soon :-)
