Comment and a question. I bought a selection of these paints to include all their OD offerings. Very impressed so far, really like these paints and I hope they continue to expand their color range. My question is about the OD range; I read it somewhere but failed to bookmark it that one of these OD colors was suitable (accurate) for the Korean War era. Can anyone point out which one that might be? Thanks in advance.

Chris,

AK makes the greens set for US Army and USMC. In that set there is Olive Drab 50
AK4213(FS34087)which according to them is the correct color for 50s armor.

The corresponding color in their Real Color line is Olive Drab RC 026.

Cheers,
Joe
