Hi...

I just opened my new Revell's box containing a Marder 1A3. I tried to convert the revvel paints for Tamiya using the usual charts but I didn't found any of the 3 basic colors for this kit:

Matt 65 - Bronze Green
Matt 84 - Leather Brown
Matt 6 - Tar Black

Any ideas for Tamiya correspondences?

This one's easy, Tamiya makes a NATO green, brown and black and are numbers XF-67, 68 and 69 respectively. Assuming the colors you listed above are for the exterior NATO 3-color camouflage scheme.
