I really like Rapido's colors!  I sold off my Walthers because they looked so bad next to the Rapido stock.

Now he tells me........................ ;D

I agree; Walther's NP colours are.....well....not NP colours...............
Model railroading isn't saving my life, but it's providing me moments of joy not normally associated with my current situation..... Train are good!

Well, don't give up hope.  That is of course one of the goals of the NPRHA modeling comittee in doing these cards.  We will provide completed copies to manufacturers so that there is a unified and correct color scheme for NP models, hopefully.

I like to use Tamiya XF-21 Sky and XF-26 Deep Green.

Aren't Tamiya paints "the bomb"?  Thin with isopropyl and spray - no runs, no hits, no errors.

And here I thought that we BCR modellers were alone in our struggles with Light and Dark Green . . .
