Do you mean to see for each kit the list of paints which are written in the instructions?

Chris Harbour
yes

This sounds nice.
I guess a second best would be a digital copy of the build instructions in pdf format, which sometimes is seen on kits listed on Scalemates. 🙂

my suggestion may make this more complicated but the aircraft are not painted in alclad II, or Tamiya paint but according to a standard such as FS595 or BS. In addition, there are often agreed paint schemes such as SIOP, SEA or "lizzard scheme".

It would be very nice to have a section on real-life paint schemes with their official referene and standardised paint references, and from there a link to the various model paints.

Although I fear this would be a mamoth task.

Check here.... our goal/hope was that after filling X amounts of decal options the amount of variants would stagnate. And we could use this as "Popular" schemes/colors. It has been a while since I last check if I can merge similar entries....

SEA Camouflage FS34102 FS34079 FS30219 FS36622
Lizard Scheme FS34079 FS30140 FS30279 FS36251

Color matches an FS code => show related paint schemes having that FScode (+name +other colors)

I will recheck if based on the massive data you all entered can be done to extract something interesting.

Francky
Impressive!!! there is still a lot more to this site than what I know and have seen. Fantastic how you can make the data itself do the heavy crunching instead of manual labour.

Still, we should be able to go from FS or BS numbers or ... to Humbrol, Tamiya numbers ...

I guess it would not be that hard to make a reference table?

scalemates
We have colorcodes for FS colors as well as colorcodes for color cans. If the values are close enough we fan do the match automatically

Dave Flitton
That is not surprising

scalemates
This is now possible, the FS/RAL/RLM codes under Markings are now clickable, on the color page you can see same/similar colors

Francky
very nice 🙂

This is a very nice feature indeed. Would it be possible to have filters (by paint brand and paint type, mostly) in the Color page ?
Also, when I click on the My tab (All/My), there are no results even if one of the paints listed below is in my stash. Is that a bug ?

scalemates

The "My" should show the paint ranges you have listed on your profile (in your case: Model Master Humbrol Tamiya Testors MIG Productions)

can you let me know which color you looked at?

Boris B
I understand now that it's paint ranges. But would it not make more sense for the 'My' filter to select the paints I actually have in my stash ?

Love the Unomog - and what you made out of it.

Max Heil
Herzlichen Dank. Das ist mein erster Versuch mit Verschmutzung.

Michael Kohl
Würde ich als gelungen bezeichnen.

Rui S
Beautiful work 👍

Villiers de Vos
Very nice work.

you can enter different location for each kit. click on + sign and go to "storage"

Spanjaard
the filtering by stash location is not available in the filters. maybe that could be added

Wheel wells painted, plastic wrapping opened. Some parts off sprue but ALL parts and decals still in box. Nothing assembled.

Hello Lukas, do you want to sell or to barter? How much is the shiping costs to the Netherlands? Greetings, Micha
