Fair question!

 

Perhaps to help narrow things a bit:

Presumably we are talking 'factory fresh'?

Allowing for scale factor or not?

And most importantly, which company?? Eg Tamiya, Gunze, Lifecolor etc?

 

Cheers

Not too fussy as to which brand although I have a soft spot for Gunze products, any brand is fine it's the colour accuracy I'm more concerned with. Probably best to go with factory fresh, then I can fade/weather as required.
