color I'm trying to replicate

I'm not convinced TS-9 is gonna do it for you. Here's a Jag w/ TS-9 over a light primer

Tamiya non-metallics seem to be fairly opaque, so I'm not sure if even using a black primer with TS-9 would get you the shade of green on that Mustang.

Testors Fathom Green (GM color) would be a lot closer.

Good point, and is that the tamiya mk2 I wan that kit so bad it looks really nice

I believe it is. I, ummm, stole the pic off some Eastern European site

To get a color close to that shade, I used a Duplicolor GM shade over Duplicolor dark grey/black etching primer. Unfortunately I don't recall exactly which one-either Emerald Green Pearl, or Forest Green Pearl (I have both on hand).

Paid $7.99 per can at the local parts store, usually enough to paint 2-3 car bodies.

Thanks guys for the tips I'll have to see what I can find

Go to Wal-Mart and grab a pack of white plastic spoons. You can test paint/primer combinations far more cheaply that way.

You could surley get a can made up of that green? That is Ivy Green on the one pictured I think, a paintshop will probably have the recipe for that color.

Update I got two coats of primer on the body and I glued the engine in
