Warhorse47 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I have been going nuts trying to find a paint I liked for my pups. Finally found one! Testor's Model Master US Navy Blue Gray M-85, it's available in acrylic, enamel and spray cans too. Woohoo! I will post some pics tomorrow.

KeithGatchalian Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I'm looking forward to seeing the pics! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/171348-finally-found-a-sw-grayblue-i-like/#findComment-2025029 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Corsair Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I too am looking forward to seeing pic, because I've looked all over my paint collection, and haven't found any SW color paints. Plus, my FLGS probably has that color because they have tons of Testor's Model Master colors.

Warhorse47 Posted June 18, 2009 Author Share Posted June 18, 2009 Okay, we will see how these turn outFor comparison, the Rhino in back is unpainted and the Predator is primed in light gray. The Leman Russ and Razorback are in the Model Master.http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff303/Kevin-Andra/001-16.jpg It is actually a little more gray in person than it looks on my monitor, but I am really pleased with it.

Okay, just for the record, one spray can did 4 Land Speeders, a Leman Russ, 3 Predators, 2 Razorbacks, a Dreadnought and 2 Rhinos. There's still a little left in it as well.

Iron Corsair Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 *Sniff* I love that color. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/171348-finally-found-a-sw-grayblue-i-like/#findComment-2025736 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smadders Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 That looks absolutely great, where did you buy it from? I've been sniffing around the internet and can't find it anywhere in spray form. Also, I live in England so if anyone knows anywhere in Blighty where I could grab a can of that stuff I'd be mightily obliged...

Warhorse47 Posted June 18, 2009 Author Share Posted June 18, 2009 I get it from a local hobby shop that carries models, radio controlled stuff and model trains. Shameless plug for Chuck's Depot in Marion, Illinois, he is one of the nicest people you will ever meet!

KeithGatchalian Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 How does the color match up with GW Shadow Grey? Lighter, Darker, more grey, more blue?

Warhorse47 Posted June 18, 2009 Author Share Posted June 18, 2009 It's pretty close to one of the shades I've seen. The good thing about Testor's is that it will always be the same from lot to lot.

Keercrevlis Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Great color, might change mine now. I have been using the Fenris Grey Foundation w/ SW Grey, Ice Blue, and Shadow Grey to give different schemes.

Logain the Ranger Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 I find that Fenris grey works perfect for me. Though the color is nice Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/171348-finally-found-a-sw-grayblue-i-like/#findComment-2026010 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schertenleib Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Warhorse, Is that a wolf's head on the side of the Leman Russ? Is it on the heavy bolter or the hull? How'd ya do it? That looks spiff!

Warhorse47 Posted June 21, 2009 Author Share Posted June 21, 2009 They are Goblin Wolf Rider heads from GW. They came on the tank when I got it and have been glued to the ends of the side guns. Yup, I like 'em too. http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/...odId=prod840911 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/171348-finally-found-a-sw-grayblue-i-like/#findComment-2027992 Share on other sites More sharing options...
