Your painting skills are awesome! I'm nowhere near being able to do that. I need measurements, complete with infant/child oral syringes for measuring.

But, here's what I'm going for, if you want to give it a go. I'm thinking that Tamiya got the 8020 about right. I just might need to lighten up the paint a little, or it almost looks like the sample was painted onto a white background with a thin application. I may have to green up Tamiya's recommendation for 7027, though. Tamiya recommends straight Buff.
