A good brown eludes me...

Post by atkin68 »

I've bought a few different brown hobby paints looking for a good chocolatey shade for PAM dials. They all seem to have too much red in them. I'm not set up for mixing, etc. Just looking for a good brown spray paint right out of the can. Any suggestions for something available in North America? I have really liked the other Tamiya products I've used, but the "Nato Brown" I just got also turned out to be very reddish. It looked right online, but not when I sprayed it. Looking for input from the community.

Thanks,
D

Honestly thought you needed a suggestion for a good laxative.

I’ve heard that Montana Paint sold at Dickblick art supply is a good can paint. Here is a color chart

A good bit of smoke helps your underparts, in the morning. But if you're not a smoker chewing gum for sure. I'm talking about laxatives Image
