Anthracite Grey

Hey. I’m GB. New to the forum and a novice modeler. Just started on the Revelle (1:48 scale) B-lB. The color scheme lists an Anthracite Grey. The only one I’ve found is used on car wheels. (PlastiDip) Anybody have the name of a paint brand that makes Anthacite Grey?

Anthracite gray is FS 32109. It is also listed as RLM 66 Schwarzgrau. Many paint lines carry this color.

You might find this a useful site in the future.

Model Master Testors would be Euro I Gray - 1788 for enamel, 4750 in acrylic

Humbrol would be 32 Dark Gray

Gunze Aqeuous/Mr. Color would be 301 Dark Gray

Anthracite grey is a WW2 German air force colour, it is close to Pz Grey. I use Xtracolour which do that colour, but I think the other examples will serve just as well.

Depending upon what era paint scheme you are putting on your B-1, the FS colors are gray 36081 and/or gray 36118. 36081/36118/34086 was the early multi color scheme, and overall 36118 is the later scheme still worn today.

Hi:

I do know that Testors Model Master line has an Anthracite Grey . You need to know that it is a metallic paint though . It is Anthracite Grey Number 2711 . That’s the best I can do for you . T.B.
