I had a question about the Polly Scale Boxcar Red and the Testors Panzer Olivgrun 1943. Both appear on people's lists who have used them and I did a couple paint tests tonight and I was wondering, does anyone use anything to brighten up the Boxcar Red or should I use it as is? I don't have access to Caboose, only Caboose Red which is very bright and clearly the wrong color. The Boxcar Red looks a little too brownish to me on my test strip and I am thinking I might put a drop or two of a brighter red into the bottle to warm it up slightly. Also the Olivgrun 1943 or Panzer Olive Green whichever you use, seem a little too dark when dry, so in the same vein I am thinking a drop or two of white or light gray into the POG will help. Does anyone have any suggestions on either? The other option was checking out Humbrol acrylics at another store and seeing if the Green 78 acrylic would be better. Thanks for all the help everyone.
