Colors For Ultra Modern Vehicles

I see so many asking for certain countries and their colors for painting.

Is there any site or info that can be linked for the different paints?

The Armoured Acorn site is a pretty good place to start:

(link won't paste here properly)

If not try using a Google image search for the vehicle you're interested in.

Very cool site ... but unless I'm missing something, they do not list the actual colors. They show what the color schemes look like (and they will look different on every uncalibrated monitor on earth) but they do not actually list what the colors are (FS numbers, Vallejo numbers or Model Master numbers, etc).

I think that's what he was asking for, actual color names or numbers. That would be an amazing resource.

Found this site that seems to be handy:

Otherwise I usually use the vallejo paint conversion chart that works pretty well. Can easily be found through a google search if you haven't already been using that.

here is a site that I have found helpful www.paint4models.com and with a little cross referencing from Vallejo paint comparison table found at Vallejo paints, as well research on the internet you maybe able to come up with colors that you need.
