Hi All,

I have the Tamiya 1/32 F-14A. The paint instruction mentions spray cans for painting, AS-25 dark ghost grey and AS-26 light ghost gray. I don't want to use these cans but normal Tamiya acrylics. I have until not found out which acrylic colours I could use instead of these cans.

Can anybody please help?

Cheers,

Matthijs

It's best if you stick with the spray cans... I've personally been in your shoes before and the colour greatly differs!

Btw you can try looking for the FS codes for these two colours:Light Ghost Grey-FS 36375, Dark Ghost Grey-FS 36320
