Can anyone tell me the paint that is referenced with Academy kits? It gives colours and no codes, so perhaps there is no specific paint manufacturer? It's for my P-39 build

Cheers,
Alex

More than likely it is Mr Color and GSI Creos Aqueous Hobby Color at least thats what is used in the directions for Academy kits I've built before. GSI colors are prefixed with an H.
Have fun.
