In Memoriam

Klaas Willem Jonker
(Wilko)
† April 30, 2018

On Monday 30 April 2018, Wilko Jonker died after a long illness at the age of 58. He leaves behind a wife and two children. The Dutch military aviation and plastic modeling were his hobby and on this website he shared all the knowledge he has collected over the years. His hobby has been able to distract him from the persistent disease in his body until the last week of his life. The contacts with other hobbyists were a major support for him.

This website will be maintained by different people for as long as possible, so that other enthusiasts can continue to benefit from extensive content.

Below some few references to web pages of especially paint manufacturers with their own paint comparison tables

 

Revell

This firm has a rather limited table with RAL, Polly Scale and ModelMaster / Testor and Acryllics and unfortunately not with Federal Standard or British Standard: Revell Germany Paint guide Cross Reference to Testors Paint Numbers

Note that Revell's paint range may vary over the years.

Italeri

Italeri also has its own paint range and a more extensive comparison table than Revell. Comparison is made with Federal Standard, Tamiya, Humbrol, Gunze en Revell: Italeri Acrylicpaint Color Conversion Chart

Humbrol

Deze fabrikant heeft het wat anders aangepakt.

This manufacturer has a somewhat different approach.

You can search for a colour system or paint manufacturer here, specify the colour or paint number and then you can request the corresponding Humbrol paint:  Convert to Humbrol

It is possible to downal a so-called  "Wall-Chart", in fact a PDF wiht Humbrol's paint range. There are also a number of cross tables for paint systems and other paint manufacturers
