Jim Bob Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Humbrol do not have a gloss mahogany shade in their range and I can only obtain their paints in my location, so:- Does anyone have a suggestion for a mix, using Humbrol paints, to produce a tolerable representation for GWR droplights and coach interiors? Any feedback greatly received. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
N15class Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 I have always used a mixture of brown and red with possibly a touch of black if the brown is a bit black if the starting brown is a bit light. Not sure about being right but it looks right to me.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have stock of Humbrol enamels: 9 (mid-brown); 19 (red) and 21 (black), so a little mixture might be in order! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
