Color question.

By Darth Drago, in X-Wing Painting and Modification

If someone has already asked this question, sorry, but I can't find it.

What color paint should I use to replicate the Decimator?

Are there any paint brands or colors that are close?

-DD

I don't know the exact shade the decimator is painted but most people tend to use Citidel paints for X-wing, stripping is optional I've found that priming first avoids the possibility of paint not sticking to the model, I would try the color Dawn Stone but Citidel may have renamed it, they tend to do annoying stuff like that

Don't forget to do a Nuln oil wash afterwards

Vallejo, with their wide range of militaristic colors and nuanced shades, might have a match...?

OK, thanks. Where can I get Citadel paints (other than online)? My game store doesn't sell paints, yet.
