Does anyone know if the colours from the Vallejo AFV Russian Green 4BO set are available separately? The surface primer 609 and the two base colours (71.017 & 71.018) are but the two greens with the 78 prefix (78.223 & 78.225) don't seen to be. In fact I can't see any 78 paints in the Vallejo charts.

Cheers

it may be that the 78s are part of a color set. I never noticed if they had a different number, but I have a 2016 catalog and Ill see if I can find the answer you seek .

I think the 7* reference numbers are a red herring. Try searching on the last three numbers ie #223. That is listed as Russian Green and available.
