Hi everybody, I have recently bought the hobbycraft 1:48 kit as I am completing it for my school for their display case. I was just wondering what colours to use in the cockpit for a base colour? The kit didn’t come with any colour codes for the office. So any help would be greatly appreciated.
They were mostly like all other cockpits of the day. Black. There was an article that pointed to the c/p being blue-gray tub and seat w/black consols and instument panel. Painting a black interior and drybrushing w/med gray would be just fine. As those windows are so tiny, and it will be back in a display case, no one would be able to see in it anyway.
Good for you to preserve history for your school through modeling! My hat is off to you.
