Hello,
I was looking for an army painter, I saw the one on BaC but it has the older paint colors. Is there a current one that people use?

Spacemarinepainter.com is one I saw are there anymore?

Nada? No one has any information on this?

http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/smp.php is the one I see people using the most and it doesn't require you to sign up for.

Yea i stated that one in the OP, but the one problem I have with it is it has the Old Color Names, not the newest ones. That is why I was wondering if there was a more up to date one.

Not sure but I think there's a colour conversion chart on here somewhere. Old gw to new gw to Vallejo. Im sure I've seen one.

here is the conversion chart for old citadel to new. hope this helps

See if this helps

I created this for my own personal use, so sorry if it's a bit messy. Basically, I went through the GW site and took screen shots of their colors and organized them by range. Then you just take a picture of whatever you want to test your theme out on, use the polygon tool and go around the edges, and then fill it in with the chosen color. It's not terribly difficult, and it's extremely useful for minis that don't have a dedicated painter. Hopefully it's helpful to you.

As a note, some of the colors aren't quite right, but they are taken straight from the GW paint splotches, so it's GW's fault that theTroll Slayer Orange looks a little weak and that Stormvermin Fur looks as interesting as it does. It's always looked like an interesting grey-purple-brown to me, but in real life, it's a pretty boring grey.
