A sad tale;
There once was a young lad who spent a week converting and painting a section of mounted infantry for WWII from Airfix Nap. Cuirassier & WWII German Inf. & Afrika Korps. He proudly took them to the club for the next game - and the reaction was his friends laughing at them.
Apparently they were all riding GREEN horses!!!!!
How could this happen you ask? Well the lad in question was red,green, brown colour blind and used Humbrol enamels. Now they just had coloured caps but no name on the tin so he obviously picked up what he thought was brown but was in fact green.
Citadel Paints may have silly names, but they've stopped him making this kind of mistake again.
Any of you guys colour blind? If so how do you get round it?
The sight of a Humbrol tinlet still takes me back to that day!
