I found the instructions vague as to the fuselage color...what are you using?

[@PlasticModelBuilder]

My colors are wrong. I didn't have the right ones. But it should be on the color foldout as to what ratio you need.

[@thebunkreport]

What colors did you use to get the camouflage grey?

[@PlasticModelBuilder]

Well mine is a concoction of incorrect colors. Mine appears more green than grey. I know it isn't accurate, but that's what I did. I think i used RLM green and whatever other color the instructions called for. Sorry I cant be of more help.

@@PlasticModelBuilder That's such a hard color to duplicate. I came very close one time starting off with flat black and flat white to get a dark grey shade. Then I added some "NATO brown" to lighten it up and give it that brownish tint. Still not great, but better than nothing! Thanks.

I tried but was missing the recommend color. Win some lose some.

Getting closer. I noticed you removed all the masks - did you end up putting a flat coat on this one later? or are you done with all painting at this point? Cool video.. make it look pretty with model makin' madness.

I sealed it with floor polish made for floors and not for models. Ironically it still seals regardless of what its put on. This way the clear stays clear!
