[WWI] CDL .. again

[rob]

All fair comments.

I do it that way, and get colours matching Misterkit, except lightened for the 
scale effect for the model I'm doing.

Can I post images as attatchments to mail on the mailing list?  does that work 
anyone?  Or is that rude?

If anyone has a link to different images of the shades of CDL, PC-10, PC12, 
Gotha Green, Pfalz silbergrau, etc., then please post it.  I, for one, would be 
more than happy to try them.

I use Misterkit because their site is the only one I found with actual swatches 
up on the web to refer to.
