I was thinking that a Reference section for suggested paints, and paint colors might be useful to myself, and others, for various periods.

For example, Cold War vehicle and uniform colors for various nations; WWII, etc..

So, I'm suggesting a poll on the subject, assuming such a Reference Section could be created, as a central board, or underneath the appropriate period, paint suggestions boards that already exist.

So, would you support a centralized Paint Color Reference Section/Board, with sub-headings underneath it for the appropriate periods?

Would you prefer a Reference Section under each painting tips category, for the individual periods, instead?

Basically, this second option could be under the existing boards that are available now, but I'd suggest perhaps a permanent reference section, sometimes referred to as a "sticky" on some groups, that remains permanent, and at the top of the messages listing, for ease of reference. I think having something like that might cut down on people asking the same questions, over and over (this is the same type of thing I'm suggesting in option 1 above, in case that wasn't clear).

Final option – I don't care what color they're painted.

Yea, that's why I made that my first suggestion, with period links underneath that, for WWII, Modern, Ultra-Modern, etc..
