Default Which kind of paint is this?

Hi there,

Where can I find this kind of grey? Could it be the PS 23 Gun Metal from Tamiya?

How does the charcoal look like in real? It seems to be black on Parma's site.

yea it is dark, I use the charcoal for shading. I wouldnt use it like DCM says personally, I would mix it straight with silver to get the desired shade before spraying, but thats just me.
