I picked up a kit of the Academy Crusader at our show. The seat color is identified as "Khaki". I'm wondering what color this corresponds to in any of the color lines. I work with acrylics but could brush-paint this if an enamel color was closer. TIA

Hi Bob
khaki is some kind of olive drab. Humbrol e.g. has No. 72 khaki drill.
remember that the seat cushion was expoed to some tear and wear so I guess any colour in the olive drab range will do.
