1/48 Revel Beaufighter.

Hi, hope everyone is safe at this current time.
I recently bought the Revel 1/48 Bristol Beaufighter TF X, but Revels paint suggestion for the blue is a mix. Does anyone know if I can buy the blue in one pot, possibly Tamiya or Vallejo?
Thank you

Is this the new 2018 release? I believe the colour could be Extra Dark sea Grey. Tamiya XF-63 or XF-24

I built my Tamiya Beaufighter using various shades and mixes of Tamiya paints. I wanted to represent as faded Extra Dark Sea Grey. For this I used Tamiya XF-50 Field Blue mixed with white in equal parts sprayed over preshaded panel lines. Darker tones, representing newer and less faded areas were done with straight XF-24 Dark Grey. To blend it all together, I then prepared a thin mix of Tamiya Medium Sea Grey and began going lightly over the surfaces. Small blotches were then added by loading very thin Tamiya XF-24 in my brush, removing the diffuser cap and spraying the model at about 30psi pressure from a distance of 2 to 3 inches.

For RAF aircrafts I prefer Airfix colors
