Post by: JB73 on May 16, 2005, 11:03:35 PM

my book shows "green-blue" and it is quite greenish NOT like this:

doing a rudamentary search turned up a bunch of options to buy model paint, but no looks at the color

should i "wing it" ?


ALSO... anyone got that font site or the font for the LW lettering (not the big numbers but the little junk like over the fuel fill cap)

Easy!

 Trust the one you think that looks best. That's usually always 'right', since nobody who talks about colors has any kind of evidence on what the planes really looked like.

 If you like it(and maybe if other people also think the colors look good, too), then that's the right one.
