I use(d) an olive from Americana as well because Createx doesn't have a stock green I liked. I used to use a craft paint for champagne, but I figured out how to mix a shade I liked with Createx pearls.

Ditto on Createx silver pearl, it's just too soft. What craft paint do you like for silver now?

I use water-based paints when fogging over scale netting or lateral lines because it's easy to wash away any grand mistakes. I also use it as the topping/fading colors in Blurple and Parrot because they cover better. I use Polytranspar & Life Tone lacquers for everything else; better colors and layering effects.
