I bought this kit as I couldn't source the earlier Yamato 2202 model.
Paints
Colour Chart
For colours, I just referred to the earlier 2199 / 2202 colours, as they're largely the same throughout the TV series.

Paints Used
Most of the paint colours reccomended for the Space Battleship Yamato 2199 / 2202 series of kits are from Gunze / GSI Creos / Mr Color range, which are hard to source in the UK. In addition, most of the original paint sets are bespoke to the line and are out of production:
