Aoshima Paint Chart Question.

I purchased an Aoshima kit last week. This is the first Aoshima Kit I have built. I noticed there isn't any English on any of the instructions that were included with the kit. I was wondering if someone could explain the painting chart to me, or give me a link to where I can figure out what paints will be required. The Kit is the Veilside Skyline GT-R.

Thanks.

The white background numbers refer to Gunze Aqueous Hobby Color paints. The black background numbers refer to Gunze Mr. Color paints. The same goes for Fujimi kits. They refer to Gunze paints as well.

Perfect! Thanks alot! For a second, I thought I was going to have to spend an entire day looking for reference pics for the whole model. Again, thanks for you help.

Re: Aoshima Paint Chart Question.

Hasegawa reference GSI Creos (new name for Gunze Sangyo) paints as well. A shame they are not distributed much outside of Japan, there is nothing better.
