Does anyone have a comparison table between Model Master colours and Humbrol colours?
I am doing an Italeri model (Tiger I) and the colour decriptions in the kit are quoting Model Master colour numbers and names. I normally only use Humbrol enamels (only ones I can easily get) but have no idea which ones correspond to the Model Master ones. I could go off the descriptions, but I think that's a bit open to interpretation by the different manufacturers. I have a Humbrol chart which compares Humbrol to Tamiya, Testors, Revell and some others, but not Model Master.
Appreciate any help, it doesn't help the fact that I am red/green colour blind
Many thanks

Roger,
Testors is sold under the name modelmasters / italeri over here. I think you should use the Testors numbers on the card, but I might be wrong.
Does anybody know more about this ?

Eagle - it seems as though you're right, they seem to match.
Delbert - got the link working at last.
Thanks to both of you.
