Hello, I recently bought Lifecolor paints for WW2 French planes. I was thinkg that the brown was more red and Kaki more yellow.
what is your opinion, colors are a good match for French a/c? |

They look about right to me, except for the French Green, which is too light and too saturated, I think. Maybe it's that the swatch is in the illuminated part of the photo. The hue does seem correct :) Maybe the light blue a bit paler. —Rolando |

I've used Lifecolor for my 6mm Armée de l'air aircraft. UA 145 Gris Bleu Foncé UA 143 Terre de Sienne UA 142 Kaki over UA 141 Gris Bleu Clair They look good. |

VEEERy beautiful indeed! I'd love to see more of your planes, slugbalancer, if you have 'em somewhere posted :) —Rolando |

Hi Rolando, I think our aircraft appear on Dave's Museum Miniatures gallery. Yes, you can see more on my website, slugbalancer.co.uk Just go to the gallery section. |

Wow! What an eye-candy fest, thanks! Very useful info on the availability of minis, and quality and such, also. —Rolando |

Hi Rolando. Sorry to ask here, but I am unable to send a personal message. I recall that time ago I saw a lot of pics of your planes in a web gallery, but I am unable to find it now. Are your pics still online? Because they were very nice painted. Greetings. Emilio. |

Didn't Rolando do a lot of the aircraft on the Raiden Miniatures gallery? link |

If I recall correctly, there were many more pics in the gallery I saw. But thanks anyway. Those are great. |

Certainly the pic of the month photos aren't on the website anymore. |
