I’m building the old Mig 25 from Hasegawa. I don’t know the exact colours for it. In the Urban Fredriksson’s Color Reference Charts ( IPMS Stockholm ) it states to be FS 36375 & FS 36231.
Can anyone confirm this ? As these colours are the same I’m using on my F22 and I don’t think an American and a Russian plane would have the same colours.
Thanks ![^]
I had the same problem many years ago when I built a MIG 25. The colors you mentioned are as close to the Russian colors as you can get. The FS 36375 is just a shade darker than the actual MIG 25 color. The FS 36231 is an ideal match.
go to this website. Yhe guy’s done a good job. He mixs black with the specifies colour to get a darker shade. the link is : http://m2reviews.cnsi.net/reviews/mod/solomig25.htm .

I have lots of MiG-25 photographs and I plan on mixing my color from memory and the photographs I shot. Most of my MiG-25 shots are on my website.
