Hi ade , there isnt really an equivalent in the tamiya range, but Humbrol do the exact colour in both their enamel and acrylic ranges if you can get hold of these, hope this helps , cheers tony

The MoD. RAF. BS626

Can be had from Xtracrylix Xtracrylix RAF Camo Barley Grey BS626 XA1017

or white Ensign if you like smelly paint. https://www.whiteensignmodels.com/p/Barley+Grey+BS18B21+AC+RN+08/369/#.UKPFcYecNck

though I see they quote it as BS18 B 21....

A non smelly one; Vallejo Model Air Barley Grey 71.051 or Vallejo Model Color Light Grey (155) 70.990 is a pretty good match.

Oh forgot one :-/ Tamiya XF19 sky grey. Can't comment on the match as I dont use Tamiya paints.

Again thanks all, it did say Humbrol but I dont use enamals, so I will go with either there acrylic or give the tamiya XF19 a go.
