I got some paint in the other day, SMS Camo Brown FS30219. I thought it looked too dark
Trying to get a brown that looks right is hard to do, especially for the AVG colors. And I've wanted to open the cowl flaps for decades.

I did end up using the FS numbers for my colors. These are Australian made acrylic lacquers, ready to spray.
