PSO Model Color Question

[shadonic]

sorry for the necro bump, but i have a question, and was wondering if anyone has the right answer for me.

i've bought shino a short time ago and i'm in a little pinch with the color codes that are listed on the last page of the manual.

since i can't read japanese i was looking around for different color manufacturers, and the only one i came around that had similar color codes to the ones listed in the manual is Gunze Sangyo.

but since many colors are mixed together to get the perfect results it's hard for me to actually find the right colors without knowing which color manufacturer uses those exact codes.

has anyone here actually worked on shino before or can anyone with japanese reading knowledge translate this for me? or can anyone tell me which color manufacturer i can buy these colors of from?

here is the scan of the manual, if anyone is interested.

The brand looks like 'Mr. Color'. (Mr. Color, Mr. Color Super Metallic and Mr. Crystal Color). Whether you can get those with any reliability outside of Japan I'm not sure.

I'd personally use something like Tamiya Color, Vallejo etc if you can't find the exact ones.
