Matching paint to original kyosho optima
I know there were kyosho paints, but I'm looking to find modern paints (fascolor, created etc) that will match the original optima box art. I've found a thread that lists equivalent tamiya rattle cans
PS3 (blue) PS6 (yellow) Then black and white for trim But I want to have a go at air brushing the shell Which water based paints suitable for an airbrush would match this please?

Optima colours
I've recently done an Optima shell.
http://www.oople.com/forums/showthread.php?t=147090 I used Createx Opaque Yellow 5204 and mixed it to warm it up with Createx Opaque Red 5210. You have to test it out a little, trim out some old coke bottles. I got it really orange at first which was way to much, so you only have to drop in a small amount. Hope this is useful!

Cheers Kane,
It is your fault I am asking as I saw your shell posting a week or 2 ago and knew that I had to have an Optima once more. Great work
