fantastic and beautifull aint they
and theres quite a range of candy colours out there available from numerous sorces but they can be expensive and of course your somewhat limited to whats available colour wise as the choice is a bit limited...
so heres me again giving away yet more trade secrets lol.
if like me your a painter and have your own paint scheme (standox in my case ) or have a friendly paint shop or supplier ...then you can mix your own Candys and have an infinate number of options available to you to make a one off colour..
Quite simply use the 2K "toner" tints mixed in laquer...to create your own ,remembering to measure exactly on the scales how much tint to mix with X amount of laquer in case you need more..
