I just bought an Italian sub kit. I would like to know if any of you have used the lifecolor paint sets? I was wondering if the WWII Italian navy camouflage set would work for the submarines colors? why I ask is that the set looks to be for surface vessels and not the Italian sub service.
Any help would be nice.
Thank you.

I use LifeColor Paints.
IMHO they are the best, I used them on my Z-31 build here on the site. Also on the U-boat in the same thread.
Yes, the set is for surface vessels.
What colors do you need for your build?
They may be available from WEM.
