This table lists by manufacturer all of the paints producted to match RLM colors directly. Closely matched colors are also shown (see the key list at the bottom of this table). The number of color-matched Luftwaffe colors has grown in recent years, making the need to mix colors almost unnecessary. Let's take a look (Updated 12 Jul 09):

Notes:

  • The colors depicted in this table are digital approximations of paint chips. Eagle Editions had graciously granted Cybermodeler permission to scan their published chip set, and while the scanning technique worked, the scanner was not color calibrated and the resulting paint chips were skewed to the lighter shades. Our current technique allows us to more accurately portray colors.
  • Please note that despite our best efforts to accurately portray colors, what you see will still vary depending on a number of settings in the graphics card in your computer as well as with your monitor and printer.

NOTICE: These tables are for comparative reference only. In using these tables, you agree not to hold Cybermodeler Online, its staff, or its sponsors liable for any typographic errors or color mis-matches.
