hey all, sry for the crazy title, lol...

anyway, I was looking through this article about NMM
http://www.necrotales.com/necroTutorials/tut_streak_painting_01.php

he says he uses VMC German Blue, but for some reason I cannot find its equivalent to GW paints, so guys what is it???

thanks

Just substitute a grey-blue or blue-grey that looks similar! Formulas should only be used as guidelines anyway and there's no need to use the exact same thing since it doesn't guarantee the same results anyway.

Try a Space Wolves Grey. Might be what you're looking for.

EDIT: Or a Shadow Grey. The two of them used together would make sense for certain NMM anyways.

hey all, whats the GW equivalent to VMC's intermediate blue???

thanks

The Vallejo site has some equivalence tables, I think there's a direct link given in a past thread.

Well, i copied Mattserbenz's NMM recipe and went with a shading of (using a codex grey base coat) shadow grey followed by a 50:50 mixture of Shadow grey and chaos black. I then used about two mixes of codex grey and space wolves grey to highlight up to pure space wolves grey then skull white for hard white reflections. Like i said in another post, i should likely go for more intermediate stages to get a really smooth effect. The above is an ok start though Dont get too hung up on perfect colour matches, just slap the paint on until it looks right. Best advice i ever got!
