belugawhaleman Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 I have a few WW I models...all seem to require Moss Green. WTH is Moss Green? I have mostly Tamiya Acrylic paint....It's just what I have. It seems every CSM model, Takom model, that I have requires this elusive green. What Tamiya equivalent exists that matches this color? Can I make up a Tamiya mix for this? What can I use? Please, share your experiences and expertise. Seriously, it's frustrating, I have been discarding projects based on the requirement of this elusive color. Thanks; Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GazzaS Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Just take some green paint you like and add some yellow. It'll be ok. Just make sure that it is more green than yellow to your eye. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterpools Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 Moss Green - Gaz and Martin - thank you for the explanation. Honestly, I never heard of the color before, as I'm not an armor builder but who knows what will pop up in the future.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
