Wargames Figures Paint Conversion Matrix

Catching up on the various blog's this morning, I found a great article by Brian over at The Warband

which detailed how he painted his Russian's, perfect timing as I kick off the next major project.

Perhaps of more interest within the article to the general gamer was an interesting app. that I had not come across before. Power Palette

Reaper Miniatures within their website they have an application called the Power Palette that you can scan an image into and it will match it to the closest Master Series Ccolours from their paint range.

Using Brian's example I also scanned images from my Osprey collection and it produced a suggested a range of colours, I even tried scanning in photo's of a couple of miniatures where I used  Reaper Master paints and with the right lighting it found it's own paint colours even with a varnish coating.

I suspect this will be old news to some but I am seriously impressed, thanks Brian for a great find.

Back in May I posted up the latest Games Workshop painting guide.

Since I posted the comparison up in my blog, I have been working to match this range to others available (Sad I know) set out below is the latest painting matrix.
