WARNING: I am still testing all of these colors, so please do not take this list at 100% accurate!!!







TLDR: I present to you a comprehensive list of Vallejo Air colors needed to paint Skitarri according to the "Legions of the Omnissiah" painting guide. Looking for a little help filling in the gaps ( I lied, it doesnt not include all the BASING colors!)

I am starting a Skitarri Army, and want to follow the painting guide... EXCEPT I do not want to use GW paints unless absolutely necessarily. I do a ton of painting using an airbrush so I have been using vallejo airbrush paints lately, I have even started using airbrush paints with a regular brush because I love the dropper bottles, plus they don't dry out, and they are already thinned down very nicely. Because of this I decided to convert all the GW paint into Vallejo Air paints... Little did I know it was going to be such a pain to track down all the perfect colors! Some Gw colors simply do not translate to Vallejo Air paints (Or in some cases any of the Vallejo paint lines!)

I have grouped the paints together by color, and have listed the GW Color FIRST, and the Vallejo Air color SECOND.
I have contacted Vallejo to fill in any gaps that the giant paint conversion chart missed. Feel free to add comments if you find a better color, or find an issue with any colors listed here.

In regards to purchasing these paints I have found its quite a pain to find a single seller that has everything in stock. I have found that Burbanks House of Hobbies has 90% of the Airbrush colors in stock. (I buy them via Ebay: http://www.ebay.com/sch/burbankshouseofhobbies/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from=
