Hope this is the correct one H66 RLM Sand Brown 79 (semigloss)?
If so there doesn't appear to be a Tamiya equivalent. The Humbrol equivalent is 62 Leather, which in turn has Testors Model Master 1736 as an equivalent. The inverse conversion does not yield any results... go figure...
Hope this helps...

also if you use enamal colors Model Masters #2088 is RLM79 Sandgelb semi-gloss not sure if MM carries that in its acrylic line but might want to check.
also just checked my paint chips and Model Master Leather is no where near the color of the sandgleb 79..
Model Masters 1955 is afrika musturd and is fairly close but not exact. but is a flat..
and by the way.. Return greeding to ya fro Pennslyvania also.
