I've got a few of the original Polly-S AD&D paints from the 1980s and I plan on using them on my unpainted lead from that era. I don't have nearly all the colors that I need – nor enough of the colors that I do have. I've managed to find a few matches using currently available paint lines, but I'm curious to see if anyone else has come up with matches. Here's a more or less complete list of the paints, courtesy the March 1981 Dungeon Hobby Shop Retail Order Blank (catalog): POLLY S ADVANCED DUNGEONS & DRAGONS(TM) COLOR SERIES Stock No. – Description 410 Dragon White 411 Frost Giant Ivory 412 Xorn Light Grey 413 Gray Ooze 414 Gnome Grey/Brown 415 Stone Giant Grey 416 Gargoyle Grey 417 Dinosaur Grey 418 Hobgoblin Grey/Black 419 Dragon Black 420 Manticore Tan 421 Bugbear Fur 422 Blink Dog Yellow/Brown 423 Otyugh Brown 424 Cenatur Brown 425 Hill Giant Red/Brown 426 Kobold Dark Red/Brown 427 Ogre Dark Brown 428 Cloud Giant Light Blue 429 Djinn Light Blue 430 Water Elemental Blue 431 Remorhaz Blue Green 432 Dragon Blue 433 Kopacinth Blue 434 Bulette Head 435 Gnoll Skin 436 Dwarf Flesh 437 Ghoul Flesh 438 Roper Yellow/Grey 439 Orc Flesh 440 Troll Brown/Grey 441 Ogre Magi Green 442 Cockatrice Yellow Green 443 Carrion Crawler Light Green 444 Green Slime Green 445 Basilisk Dark Green 446 Human Flesh 447 Elf Flesh 448 Halfling Flesh 449 Anhkeg Underside Pink 450 Beholder Body Fuchsia 451 Cave Fisher Magenta 452 Mind Flayer Mauve 453 Purple Worm Purple 454 Beholder Eyestalk Violet 455 Griffon Hide 456 Yellow Mold Yellow 457 Hippogriff Yellow 458 Kirin Yellow/Gold 459 Couatl Orange 460 Goblin Flesh 461 Salamander Orange/Red 462 Dragon Red 463 Mezzodaemon Deep Red Wyatt |

I miss Ogre Dark Brown. One of my all time favorite paints. |

When I hit the lottery I'll going to put all the PollyS paint back in production. |

I miss the old Polly-S paints. Probably the only acrylic paint line that dried to fully flat finish when it was supposed to. |

'Bugbear fur' made excellent colonial era khaki. |

Another favorite was demon deep red. |

463 Mezzodaemon Deep Red, an excellent color. As to equivalents, not a clue. I would also be interested in a chart of equivalents. |
