Hi

Can anyone here tell me, if there's normally a difference between Vallejo brown khaki and grey khaki?

I purchased both just before christmas, but after painting a bit of each on white paper, I can't tell the difference... Have I just had bad luck and gotten a mismix of either one, or are they always hard to tell apart?

Hi, here is the difference.

This half painted British Para has his denison smock painted in a base coat of Vallejo Khaki Brown:



On the other hand, these Gurkhas are painted in Vallejo Khaki Grey:

Yeah, thanks.... after shaking both colours vigorously for several minutes, I actually ended up with two different colours, too - funny thing is, the 'brown' is brighter/lighter than the 'grey' (I would have suspected otherwise..)
