I can weigh in with my experience with Scalecoat CNW green. It's close to the Floquil dark green, but appears to me to have a blue tinge to it. You might want to paint swatches with the greens you're considering, and compare them against the green you're trying to match. One word of caution -- be sure to paint the greens over the same primer or other undercoat color you'll paint the green over on your model. That can make a big difference in the end result. <br /> <br />I have had very good results in airbrushing Floquil and Scalecoat on wood, metal and styrene, but poor adhesion with both brands on engineering plastics (the types used in producing "flexible" handrails). Acrylics like Badger and Modelflex (also airbrushed) have held much better for me on engineering plastic.
