I’m building 2 dragon fireflies (6182) the colours they suggest don’t really jive. Does any one have any ideas?
[#welcome]Whitey, Welcome to the fourm and especially to the dark side. You will get a lot of information here and have a lot of fun too!
If you like to use enamels and can find Humbrol paints, their bronze green is supposed to be dead on. (Excuse me, since we’re talking British tanks and Humbrol paints, that should be ‘spot on’!!)
I can’t remember the number. It’s something like 62. I can check at home at lunch, if you’d like.
The DML suggested colors for the uniforms are way wrong. They list greens and Robert (shermanfreak) said they should be a British khaki color. Humbrol makes a nice khaki, too. Again, no idea what the number is while sitting here at work. I base coated my commander and it looks pretty good.
I painted mine with MM british khaki
Ron, what number is that, and are you talking acrylic or enamel?
Thanks
I did mine in MM acryl olive drab #4728.
In Tamiya Acrylic Colours XF-61 Dark Green or XF-62 Olive Drab. Not wrong with either.
And welcome to the forums !!!
Welcome Whitey and good luck(snicker snicker) with those infamous tracks.
there this colour
or the same as Robert (Shermanfreak) said
thank you very much everyone
