Probably a long shot (my gooogle-fu is weak), looking for a chart of Airfix/Humbrol colors and their craft paint (Folk Art, Craft Smart, Apple Barrel, DecoArt, etc) equivalents.
Trying to match colors between brands appears to be madness… ;-)

I've never seen a Humbrol to craft paint conversion chart, Zephyr. There's plenty for other hobby paint brands (eg AK Interactive, Tamiya, Vallejo, etc- eg link ), even some with FS 595a/b matches, but for craft paints you may end up having to build your own chart.

If you make such a conversion chart, please share it here, and elsewhere.

I personally don't care, but I know a great many gamers would appreciate such a chart. Cheers!
