Complete original named paint list and documented options reviewed. Source scheme: Single EVA RT TEST TYPE-01 TSRT R8 livery with complete chassis, cockpit and engine detail; Acrysion family. All store candidates are explicitly approximate or manufacturer-listed cross-family options and start unchecked. No exact physical equivalence is claimed. AK 3G wood/light-orange candidates use their own family instructions. No verified compatible store thinner is included for AK 3G; obtain the maker-specified 3G thinner separately if needed. Never substitute X20A or Mr.Color thinner. Tools and thinning purchases are unchecked. Use thinner only with its named family. Acrysion N, Aqueous H and Mr.Color C are different systems. Digital swatches are provisional; out-of-stock cards stay disabled. Source details below retain all options, code conflicts and original mixtures.
All source paint roles are retained below. Alternatives are source cross-references, not extra required purchases or certified exact matches. Printed blank values stay unspecified.
Store option: Gloss Purple Mr.Color 10ml C067. Mr.Color C67 is a glossy purple lacquer, the maker’s approximate color reference for Acrysion N39. Cross-family candidate remains unchecked. Candidate finish: Gloss; chemistry: lacquer.
Store option: Gloss Fluorescent Green Mr.Color 10ml C175. Mr.Color C175 is a true fluorescent-green lacquer, the maker’s approximate color reference for Acrysion N100. Fluorescent effect retained; no ordinary green substitution or exact physical equivalence. Candidate finish: Gloss; chemistry: lacquer.
Printed alternatives: manufacturer: MENG / AK Interactive; family: MENG color MC series; code: MC-001; name: Matt Black; finish: matt; chemistry: not stated in this original manual; source pages: 23; default selected: False; note: Printed same-row alternative paint system, not an additional required color. Do not select both families by default.
Store option: XF-1 Flat Black Mini. Approximate Matt Black candidate, retaining original MENG/Acrysion names and codes; no physical equivalence claim. Candidate finish and paint family apply only to this store product. Candidate finish: Matte; chemistry: Tamiya X/XF acrylic.
Printed alternatives: manufacturer: MENG / AK Interactive; family: MENG color MC series; code: MC-002; name: Matt White; finish: matt; chemistry: not stated in this original manual; source pages: 23; default selected: False; note: Printed same-row alternative paint system, not an additional required color. Do not select both families by default.
Store option: XF-2 Flat White 10 ML (MINI). Approximate Matt White candidate, retaining original MENG/Acrysion names and codes; no physical equivalence claim. Candidate finish and paint family apply only to this store product. Candidate finish: Matte; chemistry: Tamiya X/XF acrylic.
Printed alternatives: manufacturer: MENG / AK Interactive; family: MENG color MC series; code: MC-005; name: Matt Blue; finish: matt; chemistry: not stated in this original manual; source pages: 23; default selected: False; note: Printed same-row alternative paint system, not an additional required color. Do not select both families by default.
Store option: XF-8 Flat Blue 10 ML (MINI). Matte blue approximation follows MENG’s literal Matt Blue role. Current maker Acrysion N25 is glossy Sky Blue, a code/name/sheen discrepancy retained rather than silently turning the source role glossy. Candidate finish: Matte; chemistry: Tamiya X/XF acrylic.
Printed alternatives: manufacturer: MENG / AK Interactive; family: MENG color MC series; code: MC-008; name: Light Orange; finish: Not specified; chemistry: not stated in this original manual; source pages: 23; default selected: False; note: Printed same-row alternative paint system, not an additional required color. Do not select both families by default.
Store option: 3G Acrylic Light Orange AK11077. AK’s primary MENG/3Gen conversion table explicitly pairs MC008 Light Orange with AK11077. This remains an unchecked cross-family light-orange option; dried physical equivalence is unverified. The printed Acrysion N34 is currently maker-named Cream Yellow; that differing hue/name is retained as a source cross-reference limitation. Candidate is matte; source sheen was unspecified. Candidate finish: Matte; chemistry: water_based_acrylic.
Printed alternatives: manufacturer: MENG / AK Interactive; family: MENG color MC series; code: MC-101; name: Transparent Red; finish: transparent; sheen unspecified; chemistry: not stated in this original manual; source pages: 23; default selected: False; note: Printed same-row alternative paint system, not an additional required color. Do not select both families by default.
Store option: X-27 Clear Red 10 ML (MINI). Approximate Transparent Red candidate, retaining original MENG/Acrysion names and codes; no physical equivalence claim. Candidate finish and paint family apply only to this store product. Candidate finish: not established; chemistry: Tamiya X/XF acrylic.
Printed alternatives: manufacturer: MENG / AK Interactive; family: MENG color MC series; code: MC-208; name: Light Greyish White; finish: Not specified; chemistry: not stated in this original manual; source pages: 23; default selected: False; note: Printed same-row alternative paint system, not an additional required color. Do not select both families by default.
Store option: Off White Gloss Mr.Color 10ml C069. Approximate Light Greyish White candidate, retaining original MENG/Acrysion names and codes; no physical equivalence claim. Candidate finish and paint family apply only to this store product. Candidate finish: Gloss; chemistry: lacquer.
Printed alternatives: manufacturer: MENG / AK Interactive; family: MENG color MC series; code: MC-401; name: Gloss Black; finish: gloss; chemistry: not stated in this original manual; source pages: 23; default selected: False; note: Printed same-row alternative paint system, not an additional required color. Do not select both families by default.
Store option: X-1 Black 10 ML (MINI). Approximate Gloss Black candidate, retaining original MENG/Acrysion names and codes; no physical equivalence claim. Candidate finish and paint family apply only to this store product. Candidate finish: Gloss; chemistry: Tamiya X/XF acrylic.
Printed alternatives: manufacturer: MENG / AK Interactive; family: MENG color MC series; code: MC-403; name: Gloss Red; finish: gloss; chemistry: not stated in this original manual; source pages: 23; default selected: False; note: Printed same-row alternative paint system, not an additional required color. Do not select both families by default.
Store option: X-7 Red 10 ML (MINI). Approximate Gloss Red candidate, retaining original MENG/Acrysion names and codes; no physical equivalence claim. Candidate finish and paint family apply only to this store product. Candidate finish: Gloss; chemistry: Tamiya X/XF acrylic.
Printed alternatives: manufacturer: MENG / AK Interactive; family: MENG color MC series; code: MC-502; name: Silver; finish: metallic; sheen unspecified; chemistry: not stated in this original manual; source pages: 23; default selected: False; note: Printed same-row alternative paint system, not an additional required color. Do not select both families by default.
Store option: Metallic Silver Mr.Color 10ml C008. Mr.Color C8 metallic Silver is the maker’s approximate color cross-reference for Acrysion N8. Silver remains a distinct card from Chrome, despite the original repeated N8 code. Candidate finish: Metallic; chemistry: lacquer.
Printed alternatives: manufacturer: MENG / AK Interactive; family: MENG color MC series; code: MC-505; name: Gun Metal; finish: metallic; sheen unspecified; chemistry: not stated in this original manual; source pages: 23; default selected: False; note: Printed same-row alternative paint system, not an additional required color. Do not select both families by default.
Store option: X-10 Gun Metal 10 ML (MINI). Approximate Gun Metal candidate, retaining original MENG/Acrysion names and codes; no physical equivalence claim. Candidate finish and paint family apply only to this store product. Candidate finish: Metallic; chemistry: Tamiya X/XF acrylic.
Printed alternatives: manufacturer: MENG / AK Interactive; family: MENG color MC series; code: MC-506; name: Burnt Red; finish: Not specified; chemistry: not stated in this original manual; source pages: 23; default selected: False; note: Printed same-row alternative paint system, not an additional required color. Do not select both families by default.
Store option: Metallic Burnt Iron Mr.Color 10ml C061. Original English Burnt Red, Japanese バーントラスト, Russian Ржавчина and MC-506/N76 are retained. Maker Acrysion chart names N76 metallic Burnt Iron and explicitly lists C61 as an approximate cross-family color. C61 is therefore an unchecked burnt-metal exhaust option based on that printed N76 code, not a correction to MENG’s name or an exact MC506 match. Source finish stays unspecified. Candidate finish: not established; chemistry: lacquer.
Printed alternatives: manufacturer: MENG / AK Interactive; family: MENG color MC series; code: MC-507; name: Chrome; finish: chrome metallic; sheen unspecified; chemistry: not stated in this original manual; source pages: 23; default selected: False; note: Printed same-row alternative paint system, not an additional required color. Do not select both families by default.
Store option: Chrome (71064). Vallejo Model Air 71.064 Chrome is a separate bright-metallic candidate from Silver. No mirror/chrome-plating equivalence is claimed. The original shared N8 code is preserved without merging the Chrome and Silver roles. Candidate finish: Metallic; chemistry: water_based_acrylic.
name: Single EVA RT TEST TYPE-01 TSRT R8 livery with complete chassis, cockpit and engine detail; Acrysion family; family: Acrysion Water Based Color; selected indices: N39; N100; MC-001/N12; MC-002/N11; MC-005/N25; MC-008/N34; MC-101/N90; MC-208/N21; MC-401/N2; MC-403/N3; MC-502/N8; MC-505/N18; MC-506/N76; MC-507/N8; supported common assembly indices: N39; N100; MC-001/N12; MC-002/N11; MC-005/N25; MC-008/N34; MC-101/N90; MC-208/N21; MC-401/N2; MC-403/N3; MC-502/N8; MC-505/N18; MC-506/N76; MC-507/N8; selected unique codes: N39; N100; N12; N11; N25; N34; N90; N21; N2; N3; N8; N18; N76; source role count: 14; distinct paint code count: 13; note: All fourteen legend roles are explicitly applied. Acrysion is the only fully printed family because no MC code is printed for Gloss Purple or Fluorescent Green. N8 may be purchased once for its two printed source roles, but Chrome versus Silver intent and the manufacturer cross-reference limitation must remain visible. All twelve MC-series alternatives are mutually exclusive and unchecked by default.

Decal sheet B supplies large purple/green patterned panels; sheet A supplies remaining striping, sponsors, number and carbon-fiber/interior details. Printed body paint N39 is still expressly specified.
kind: multilingual_name_discrepancy; source pages: 23; printed codes: MC-506; N76; original language names: en: Burnt Red; zh: 烧蚀; ja: バーントラスト; ru: Ржавчина; handling: Preserve every original name/code tuple. No translation is substituted for the printed English. No current manufacturer chart was checked in this read-only instruction review; mapping must distinguish exact code identity from any code/name discrepancy, and must not choose ordinary red solely from the English phrase.; kind: same_alternative_code_for_distinct_effect_roles; source pages: 23; rows: en: Silver; zh: 银; ja: シルバー; ru: Серебристый; meng code: MC-502; acrysion code: N8; en: Chrome; zh: 铬金属; ja: クローム; ru: Хром (металлик); meng code: MC-507; acrysion code: N8; handling: N8 is explicitly shared in the original. Do not rewrite Chrome as Silver or claim N8 / any alternative is physically chrome-equivalent. Deduplicate only the eventual exact same product purchase, never source roles.

No extra belt color, tire paint, clear yellow headlight paint, metal color for bare belt fittings, or alternative marking paints are inferred from illustration colors.; type: no_paint_recipe; description: No mixture, proportion, separately named primer, varnish, weathering product or thinner is specified in any of the 26 pages. Fluorescent effect is explicit; a white-base recommendation may be a separate product-practice note, not a claimed manual instruction.
paint requirement: Painting is conditional in the introduction (if you need to paint this model), and fourteen applied source roles define the one documented painted finish.; plastic cement: status: conditional / recommended by manufacturer; source pages: 2; 3; 5; printed products: MTS-004/005; note: Use plastic model cement for plastic parts if glue is needed. Product contains no paint, glue or hobby tools. Do not override no-cement symbols.; cyanoacrylate: status: explicit assembly callout for fitted photo-etch; source pages: 2; 3; 5; 20; 22; printed products: MTS-016/017; usage: W2/W3/W4/W5 metal mesh in step28 and W1 front grille in step32; page2 gives general CA-for-metal instruction.; default supply selected: False; other recommendations: name: Hobby knife, side cutters and tweezers; printed product: MTS-003 basic tool set; source pages: 4; 5; name: Alternative side cutters; printed products: MTS-022; MTS-026; MTS-039; source pages: 5; supply selection note: All optional shop supplies start unchecked; exact tool brands/products are source examples, not a requirement to buy them.

Complete original has cover, printed pages1-24 and back cover (26 PDF pages). All 34 assembly steps, multilingual key, five-view livery and parts/decal/mask/belt/foil inventories reviewed twice, including native extracted full-resolution images. No missing sheet or referenced absent supplement was identified.; Catalog title/handle/SKU, images and description are retained exactly. Blank catalog SKU is explicit; cover and catalog photograph verify CS-008, 1/24 and this Evangelion edition. Molded CS-006 marks on reused parts and PE do not change the release identity.; 14 source roles correspond to 13 unique Acrysion products and 12 alternative MC-series codes; family alternatives are not mixtures. Do not substitute Mr. Color C or Aqueous H codes merely because the numeric portion matches N.; MC-506/N76 retains exact multilingual naming disagreement. Chrome MC-507 and Silver MC-502 both cross-reference N8; no physical effect equivalence is claimed.; No kit figures or standalone accessory paints. Assembly diagrams use yellow highlighting for the newly added assembly/part, even for known black/white parts; yellow illustration fill is not a paint requirement. Headlight cover art yellow glow does not authorize clear yellow paint.; The SpotModel-hosted MENG original is a valid research source but is not manufacturer-hosted.
