I’ve been searching for FOW  German infantry paint sets .

they dont seam to be on the flames of war site any more. is there any stockiest in UK that do them ?

You could always grab the Vallejo one unless you want an absolutely seamless match with existing painted figs.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/i/283505490348  for example, (though I haven’t done a price comparison, and it might well be available at a better price elsewhere.)

checking for the FoW one, it seems to be out of stock everywhere I have looked.

I thought FoW paints were Vallejo paints or have they changed supplier?

The FOW site refers to Vallejo , but all the colour coded are wrong

Do you mean battlefront have changed the names of the paints?

If you type    flames of war paint conversion chart.   into Google the first item will be a pdf of a  Vallejo/FoW conversion chart

The recent Colours of War book uses Vallejo paints.  If you have a specific question, perhaps I could have a look through the book to see if I can answer it…

Thanks @robert ive worked it out now. it was the fact FOW hasn’t updated their painting guides on the website for some years and i was getting confused over item numbers
