Gary I use this all the time plus it has other useful features such as a scale converter as well. it is a free app called Hobby color converter.
Humbrol Tamyia
65 = XF 21 sky flat
241 = XF 27 Black/green
242 = XF 58 Olive green

Hope this helps

I kind of doubt that’s accurate. Isn’t Humbrol 65 a pale blue? Tamiya XF-21 Sky is a pale green.

Your right..its XF-23 according to hobby color app.
If it helps,its for Airfix Stuka kit.AO7115.
It hasn't arrived yet so i'm just going from the airfix site.I wanted Tamiya in the 1st place but no one seems to have any in stock.

Thanks for the tip on the app. Just downloaded it, turns out it was updated today! Had a quick peak and it looks very good.

Thanks again.
