What brand and color of paint...

[Cloud Strife]

... is a good match for Iceberg's blue, and then I also need to match the blue on Wetsuit for his mask?

I would try and mix and match the colors myself, but I'm hoping to see if anyone already knows a good paint or mixture that achieves these colors, as I don't want to waste a lot of paint trying to match these colors.

Thanks!

I'd check Citadel or Vallejo first. They seem to have the widest variety if you're not interested in mixing.

Yeah, Model Masters has plenty of darker colors, but doesn't have a wide selection of brighter ones. I know of at least one place around here that sells Vallejo. I'll have to go check them out.

i had to mix for those colors myself...took quite a bit of time

^Yeah, that's what I believe I'll end up having to do. I hate color-matching.

If only Hasbro would sell paint colors used on their figures for touch-up...

AND go back to the back screw...

I think it would be fairly easy to redesign the back screw....back...into the upper torso.

And i would kill to be able to buy the formulation of paint Hasbro uses. That lovely, lead-based bullet-proof paint.

That would be nice!

Haha... Yeah, it makes me wonder if I'm going to get cancer when I'm dremeling a figure and start to smell the plastic...

The only paint i've seen more durable than toy paint was the government surplus red primer i took off the '48.


Lead-based and tough as hell

yeah, paint that sticks and holds up as good as Big-H's would be so awesome
