Grumman Grey

Modeling Subjects Aircraft
1

Due to some tough life situations, I’m finally able to get back to modeling. I’m starting back with the Trumpeter 1/32 F4F-4 Wildcat. My favorite plane. I want to make this one as accurate as possible (at least for me). Does anyone know the FS# of Grumman Grey, or rather the Testors Model Masters version. Some of my reasearch has had everything from Ocean grey USN, to Flat gull grey, & a few others.

Also, can anyone recommend a quality cockpit and any good PE parts. Yes I’m going to try PE. lol

There is a good answer to your questions in this old Fine Scale thread, dating back to 2005.

I built several Wildcats last year, but would have to check with my build notes to tell you which colors I used.
