Hi All,

I am building the 1/48 Hasegawa Corsair with the Argentinian Navy Gloss Sea Blue scheme. The instructions recommend the FS15042 colour, but I would like some confirmation from you guys. Any Corsair expert around this great forum? is this the right colour? I am a big fan of Vallejo paint, has anyone tried to mix Vallejo paint to get this FS15042?

Thanks and all the best for 2010!

But in a word, USN Dark Sea Blue is the choice.
