Sorry. I’m looking for exact color in acrylic. Just starting this hobby and I’m reading enamel paint is kind of dangerous. I was looking for Revell paint in acrylic. What othe brands of paint can I use. I’m looking for light blue gloss in acrylic on Internet.
 
I'm asking where you are because I don't want to recommend a vendor that is on the other side of the planet from you .

The kit manufacturers that produce their own paints like Revell and Tamiya specify their own brands in the instructions for obvious reasons .
The colors in that list you posted are very common .

If you are in North America I highly recommend Scale Hobbyist .
Here is their bottled paint selection : https://www.scalehobbyist.com/catagories/Paint_and_Construction/browse.php?s=3&t=1&u=1

Since you are brush painting I'd recommend going with Vallejo : https://www.scalehobbyist.com/catag...u=1&pg=1&ppp=48&sb=stocknumber_a&so=d&man=VLJ

Or Life Color : https://www.scalehobbyist.com/catag...u=1&pg=1&ppp=48&sb=stocknumber_a&so=d&man=LFC

Scale Hobbyist is in NH .
Great customer service and unapparelled selection .
I've been ordered from them for well over a decade .
 
Have you tried AAA Hobbies in Magnolia? They are the bricks-and-mortar location for MegaHobby, and the retail outlet for Stevens International.
That is a great store and one of the few remaining old school style hobby shops

Also great selections of paint as thy have most brands

It is about 50 minutes from where I am at, but is worth the trip
 
If you visit Triple-A on the last Sunday of the month, too, you can join us of the MFCA for our monthly meetings. We meet at AAA, starting at 11AM when the store opens, with social/discussion time till 1PM. We hold a brief meeting, then have a presentation or more discussion time, till around 4PM. We encourage everyone to bring something to show or to work on, or both. It's a great time to swap tips and ideas with other painters and collectors.

Enamel paints dangerous?! ROFLMAO! So is sniffing tube glue. I’ve been using enamel paints for as long as I can remember going as far back as the mid 70s. I still have a nice stash of it from the 80s (Model Master)

Wanna know what’s in my paint stash?

Model Master - enamel and acrylics
Pollyscale
Tamiya
Testors square bottles
Floquil RR colors
AK Interactive Real Color
Mission Models
Humbrol - enamel
Gunze/Mr. Color
Vallejo

Don’t concern yourself thinking enamels are dangerous.

Don’t kid yourself that Revell acrylics are harmless. They stick worse than enamel paints. I should know since I just picked up one bottle of to try out.

Revell aqua color the ones in those Blue square jar things are something of an anomaly to me they aren't quite like normal acrylics and they aren't like enamels they are some weird in between in my opinion.. they do brush paint well spraying though was possible but they need thinner and retarder
