| Harry, I have never mixed this one before and I don’t have access to my paints as I am at sea. The recommended Humbrol mix is 34:4+74:3+a hint of gray. Humbrol 34 is white, but Humbrol 74 is a medium to light creamy yellow and there is nothing like it in the Tamiya paint line. Humbrol 74 would be like a mix of XF59:2+XF2:3+XF3:1. My recommendation for a Tamiya Portland Stone match would be XF59:3+XF2:4/5/6+XF3:1+XF19:1 with some experimentation required. Something easier might be XF59:3+XF2:4/5, XF57:1+XF2:1 or XF60:2+XF2:3. HTH, Rich |
