Blues and greens

Guys, I have two colors that I was using on Soviet aircraft. One is MM 2135 USSR Interior Blue/Green and the other is AeroMaster 1268 Radome/Hub Green. I was using the MM color for the cockpit etc, and the AeroMaster color for the Soviet hub green. However, I happened to be painted the hubs next to a part that was painted the MM color and noticed the colors are very close. Are these two colors supposed to be the same? Thanks.

don’t think so… Radome green is supposed to be a fairly dark green while the blue/green found in the cockpit is definitely ‘turquoiseish’… Much lighter, much brighter.

Ok, I’m glad to hear that. Heh…I still don’t understand why they just had to paint the hubs that particular color. Especially when the wheel wells are the other blue/green color. For me, I would have used the same color just to save money! Who knows.
