I have recently bought a huge army builder lot of ARAH style night watch cobra troopers. I have this idea in my head that i want to make them part of a special group of cobra soldiers. I have this idea that they are somehow connected to ww2 nazi germany and are a secret cult of followers, but also pay allegence to Cobra. So with around 25 of these soldiers I have a good solid start. I decided that there primary vehicle is the cobra Maggot. I think this works best for that WW2 feel i am going for. Anyway i have made a few other custom vehicles to go with them and they are all tank like vehicles. So i thought it would be fitting to call them Cobras 5th armored division. (And i will have a back story and pics when i am done about them).
Anyway the reason i am telling you all about this is becasue I need to paint these new vehicles. I know it sounds weird but i like the color scheme of the cobra maggot already. I am going for that blue grey color and that off yellow. any, help would greatly be appreciated. So if anyone knows a spray can paint that is this color let me know, or what the color would be called. I also noticed that its the same color on the cobra sea ray. |

Testors makes a good variety of naval and aviation colors in spray cans and jars. There is a good one I used for one of my customs. It was an aviation one, but I can't remember the name. I'll see if I can dig it up. Krylon also make a cornflower blue that MIGHT pass your standard, but the Testors is fantastic.

Found it. Sorry, it wasn't Testors. It's Tamiya Haze Grey. I like the Tamiya sprays better anyway. They aren't as runny. Lemme know how it turns out!
