Hi all,
       I've been trawling through these threads & checked out the web over the past days to see if I could find anything regarding MS paint charts referring to Air forces & so far I've not been too successful. So far I have made up my own palette of RAF & Luftwaffe colours, but I need some help to see if I have the proper shades.
       I've been searching the http://scale-models.nl/cc-search.aspx site , http://www.jpsmodell.de/dc/index.htm & http://www.ipmsstockholm.org/colorcharts/stuff_eng_colorcharts_uk.htm sites for my attempts. Trouble is, it's very time consuming & been giving me headaches. But I persevere none the less. 
        Do other members have a listing in paint of the colours they use for their artworks that I could use? I also need some info regarding shades of blue red & yellow for WW II RAF roundels, USAF Star & bars & shade of yellow for the 'P' markings on RAF prototypes.
       So if anyone could help, or provide more links to other colour chart sites, I would be most happy.
       Thanks in advance, KenGeorge.

Something like >>THIS<<? Simmers Paint Shop gives you the RGB values for a given BS, FS,RLM and whatnot code. This should allow you to get the proper shade in MS Paint.  :thumbsup:

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Even though I don't do profiles, the colors can come in handy for modeling as well.
