My dad is building an Essex class Carrier from the 50s and I want to buy him the paint for Christmas. Ships aren’t my thing though.
Could anyone suggest, say, half a dozen key colors he'll need? Not too concerned about 100% accuracy. I buy Vallejo paint but I'll take suggestions of FS, Tamiya, or whatever and figure out the equivalencies myself.
Thanks in advance.
