Who makes a spray paint version of Gelboliv, RAL 6014 I can buy in the US? I'll painting micro armour, so it's OK if it's a bit light. Thanks. pjm |

link Sometimes it is to easy. Drybrush with catachan green from GW or just with dirt. :) |

Rudi, I don't think the NATO Green is the same color as Gelboliv. I'm not positive, my memories fade, but I recall the NATO Green – used in the NATO tri-color scheme – being more of a green. Golboliv – used by Bundeswehr before they transitioned to the NATO tri-color scheme – is more brown and grey than the NATO Green. Thanks for the tip on dry brushing. I could probably cover them with pink Grafenwoehr dust, but that wouldn't be too martial. :) pjm |

Gelboliv is indeed a very different colour. I'm afraid spraying available Gelboliv paints would require an airbrush as I don't think anyone makes it in a spray can. |

Humbrol makes the GelbOliv (they call it NATO Oliv) and I think it's #64. Sure, it comes in those goofy little tins, but it sprays pretty well through an airbrush. Brookhurst has Humbrol paints. Wyatt |

I realize a number of companies make Gelboliv in a tin or jar and not quite motivated enough to use an airbrush. Hard to believe nobody makes the stuff for a spray can. pjm |

I use Model Masters Gelboliv. I've never seen Gelboliv in a spray, from any company. |
