What would the Model Master Color be for the Tamiya Color "German Grey". I( looked it up in the Model Master Tech specs book, but it looks REALLY dark. Any experience in this out there?
Thanks,

I'm using hannats x-tracolor 800 (black grey) which Tony Greenland states is a near bob on match and that is almost black to look at but it's a colour that you could see 5 dozen shades of and all be correct I'd go for the darker colour myself as it will stand out better with drybrushing ect

You can always lighten it up a little with some white, I think the MM Gunship Gray is pretty close as well.

HTH and Welcome to the site.
