Hi, guys. I've been agonizing over what green to use for a bunch of 1/200 Bettys I'm painting for CY6. I'm doing the solid green scheme (not the two-tone camo that seemed common in the early war). I really do not want to airbrush. What Vallejo Model Color paints do folks recommend for this project? the color "black green" seems way too dark at this scale. I'm fine with a weathered sun-faded look rather than out of the factory. Thanks! Matt

Very nice list! Do you know if there is a tank and other vehicle equivalent?
