Gunze makes 2 lines of paint, one acrylic and one enamel
Mr Color is a 'solvent based acrylic paint' and Aqueous Hobby Color is 'water based acrylic paint' quoted directly from their clor chart, printed from
www.wbs.ne.jp/bt/models/rainbow10/emcolor.jpegbut I've had these for a while and I'm not sure the link is still good.
IIRC Rainbow 10 had a Gunze color chart available..

If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs,
perhaps you've misunderstood the situation.

I was recently told to try these out by a local pro. After telling him that I love tamiya but wish they had FS paints he told me to try these paints because the 2 are very similar. I bought them for my avenger but haven't used them yet. They even smell like tamiya paints. Once I use them I'll let you know how I think they work, but most likely you will beat me to it.
