Hi again,

Still working on the corsair I'd like to know which alternatives there are to the Tamiya navy blue rattle can. Some parts I want to just brush and others I'd like to do with the airbrush..

I have been looking for some good cross reference charts but it seems that Navy Blue is rare or not used under that name from other paint manufacturers.

And since I am on the topic of manufacturers.. are there easy ways for for instance Model Air paints to be bought (if there is a difference with the Vallejo Model Color range)

Thanks in advance,
Albert
