Is there a list to compare different manufactured paints to another manufacture’s paints. [:^)]
For example; I have the Eduard MIG 21 SMT kit [Y][Y][Y]. In it Eduard recommends Gunze Aqueous & Mr. Color paints. I can’t get those colors[:'(] . I have various Tamiya, Model Master Acrylics and Vallejo paints. I need to be ablle to look at one number and find a corresponding number that fits. [8-|]
Any help is appreciated.
sure, there are a ton of them
www.cybermodeler.com/index.shtml (see “color guides” at the top)
www.simmerspaintshop.com/page-RGB-colors-UK.html
and many more, some will list cross references from paint to paint, and FS to RAL, etc, etc
some are just color examples of the FS, BSC, RAL, with suggested paints next to them
but, for just quick look ups of “what color is H-56 in Model Master Acryls?”, the http://www.paint4models.com/ page is easiest,it includes more paint ranges than the often linked IPMS Stockholm charts include
I have 49 bookmarks in my “Colors” folder, and a lot of that conflicts,so, if you need a different link, just ask

This one’s handy too: http://www.acrylicosvallejo.com/en_US/media/0049261608364909a238add9b4a53745.cms/cc073-rev05.pdf
That Cybermodeler one is killer!
It is well to do a google search for such cross-reference charts, there are a number of them, as the above charts show, and each site has some advantages.
I like http://paintfinder.ehaltom.com. It seems to have a good database of color.
