Please spare a little of your time to help me decide on the shades of colors to use on my 1/100 Gundam Kyrios. For the orange: Orange Bright Orange Clear Orange I'm torn between the Bright Orange (2nd) and Clear Orange (3rd) since they are closer to the actual anime colors than the 1st one. I'm gonna change the gray that I use since the one I got before didn't look good. Here's my choices: Gun Metal Gunship Grey Gundams have green eyes and Kyrios has a "pilot hatch" when its in flight mode that is also green. Here's my choices: Racing Green Olive Drab You could also share with me your preferred shade for the said colors. Thanks for helping!

for me, those color guide are not accurate.
Go to lil's and see those paints in person, bring some parts of your kit along so you can compare.
Gun metal is metallic in color. For the gray parts some of them use "german Gray" by Tamiya, I used "Neutral Gray" by Gunze Mr. Color.
for the green part, I used metallic green.

also use neutral grey. bright orange looks close to the original. for the green i use metalic green or flat green for the eyes. (close to your olive drab)
