[WWI] WW I enamel paints

[Nicklas, Brian]

I agree with Tom.
I had some nice Humbrol WWI color tins, but they have died from use or
age.
The WEM stuff is nice, I have a few for ot projects - some nice OT
enamels would be a treat - and there are some nice color chips in early
issues of Windsock if he needs reference...

Marc,

I would like to see a good line of WWI enamels as I paint my models with

enamels. over the years I have used Humbrol and Pactra enamels for OT 
aircraft. They both used to have paints sets for this. I still have
some, 
but if I ever start getting more productive in model building they will
not 
last long.

T.O.M.
