Hey gang,
I decided to build a zero to compliment my hellcat (though this will be a straight OOB build). Anyway, where can I find a list of the correct colors and the model paint equivalent?
Thanks,
Fred
[#ditto] Awesome site, more info there on Japanese aircraft than I have seen every else combined.
Definitely a cool site, but a bit overwhelming, if not a bit confusing [%-)]
Anyway, from doing a couple different crosschecks, it looks like the matching FS number is 34095, which testors call Medium Field Green (1786). Does this sound right?
And what about the lower surfaces and cockpit interior. There are like a dozen different colors listed.
If it helps any, I’m looking to build a late pacific war, IJN fighter.
If anybody knows the correct colors off the top of their heads or from a previous build, it would be greatly appreciated.

Fred, I’ve referred to this particular part of that site when I work on my Tamiya A6M5…hope it helps.

Tamiya has an Interior Green that they issued when their 1/32 Zero came out, along with exterior IJN and IJA Green also.
