Title: Colours
Post by: Glenn 'Stinky' Stankevicius on March 27, 2013, 08:15:26 PM
I was trying out some colours in the paint tool - http://www.fefcholden.org.au/techinfo/painter/index.html
and I was after Forrester Green as my wagon was originally Forrester Green over Ice Green, but it's not there  :'(

So what would be closest out of the available colours in the tool to Forrester?

Hi Glenn,
Forrester green is a real dark green, and the darkest green on the pallet is Bermuda green.
The Ice green looks a lot like the Milford green on the pallet.
Have you got the Trax 1:43 scale FC TR 13L ? This model is painted the colours you are after.
If you want a picture let me know.

Stinky

When getting close to laying down the colours, I go to the paint shop and get a little tin made up of each of the selections, just to make sure, they only cost a few dollars
