Hi All

Greetings from Ireland. I am trying to paint a couple of Teams, Can anyone let me know what colours to use for the Eagles and Chargers ?

Were you going to do 2009 versions of the uniforms? The colors have changed a bit over the years. Plus, the Chargers sometimes wear those awesome "baby blue" throwback jerseys. Is the NFL getting popular in Ireland?

Hi John


Thanks for the reply - I am looking to paint the most upto date version. NFL interest comes and goes in Ireland. But more and more people are getting interested. There is now a couple of American Football teams playing all over Ireland, the standard is poor but the fun and excitement is still there.

I'm not sure which Miggle paint matches the Eagles green. I'm about to do them in dark jerseys, and am going with Testors Model Master #52714 Dark Green Pearl. It seems to have the "shimmer" that the jerseys have. The helmets are a bit darker, I may add a touch of black for those.

Hi John,

Greetings to you my friend. My name, coincidentally, is also John but I am better known on the Miggle chatboard as Coach J. This is your first post so let me say welcome to the hobby and the Miggle chatboard. You have come to a good place to get your electric football questions answered.

Unfortunately I know nothing about painting but I am sure others can assist you in that area. Hopefully you will share with us your teams after they have been painted.

Have a good day, feel free to ask any additional questions, and again welcome to the hobby and the Miggle chatboard.

John aka Coach J
