Great Britain
Germany
Italy
Japan
USA
USSR
Also, what brand do you guys recommend?
Thanks so much!
Here are some colors I’m going to try:
ANZAC = London Gray https://www.rustoleum.com/product-catalog/consumer-brands/painters-touch-2x-ultra-cover/satin?ls=249857&lc=Satin London Gray
Axis Minors = Satin Granite
China CCP = Apple Red https://spraypaint.rustoleum.com/products/satin-thd?ls=334094&lc=Satin Apple Red
China KMT = Eden https://spraypaint.rustoleum.com/en/products/satin-thd?ls=334070&lc=Satin Eden
Free French = Aqua https://www.rustoleum.com/product-catalog/consumer-brands/painters-touch-2x-ultra-cover/satin/ Aqua

Great Britain = Gloss Khaki
Italy = Brown Flat Protective Enamel

Neutrals = Blossom White

Republican Spain = Aubergine https://spraypaint.rustoleum.com/products/satin-thd?ls=334060&lc=Satin Aubergine

I look forward to seeing how they turn out for you. Good luck!
Confirmed matches, thus far:
ANZAC is London Gray
China CCP is Apple Red
China KMT is close to Eden (but nothing quite matches that lime-green color)
Free French is Aqua
Germany is Canyon Black
Nationalist Spain is Lemongrass
Neutrals is Blossom White
Republican Spain is Aubergine
Here’s a great thread for those of you painting by hand:

@hbg-gw-enthusiast Not sure where you are in the world, but curious where you found such a variety of paint colors? I found a few at my local hardware store, but not all the ones you listed.
@captainnapalm I’m in rural Minnesota. The store is called “Fleet Farm.” Their selection is insane. So many colors. And if you need tack for your horse, or automotive supplies, or you want to buy a riding lawn mower, or lumber, or basically anything, they probably have it!
FleetFarm is one of my favorite stores.
