These are the colors (Testors) which I've found most closely match the pictures (boxes, Osprey books, etc.). For one shade colors, here are the Testors numbers; black (1149 or 1749), white (1168 or 1768), gold (1144 or 1744), silver (1146), steel (1180 or 1780), brass (1182 or 1782), flesh (flat-various available shades or mixtures). Testors is sold in Europe under the name "Model Master".
NOTE: colors based on the Osprey books- Men At Arms series #69,Elite series #7B,Warrior series #27, and the box art.
ALL COLOR NUMBERS ARE TESTORS UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED.
With the variety of shield designs for all troops, these are listed separately. Area designations based on Osprey books.
