Biblical Period-2

2006-2-13

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;
ALL COLOR NUMBERS ARE TESTORS UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED.
Testors is sold in Europe under the name "Model Master".

NOTE: colors based on the Osprey books-Men At Arms series #109, Elite series #39, #40, and the box art.
