Nice Job Kev,

However, I haven't seen any photo's of Aussie Spits with the band around the tail, at least that broad. What colour chips are you using btw?

Thats beautiful.  I love the color scheme.  Something about it just screams "FLY ME!"  :)

Thanks.
FTJR - Some did have the color band.

Few pics on the net also showing the band. Just used standard RAF size band as I 'assume' they would just overpaint the sky color.

Paint chips are from skinners heaven

Only one that was hard to find was the values for RAAF Dark Foliage Green.

Really nice looking Spit!  I love the detail around the aileron hinge - that dark line really adds some separation.

I stand corrected. I hadn't seen that before. And thanks for the link, it is the same i;ve been using. The foilage green there is not to your liking?

Cheers

LSJ - Sure
FTJR - The foliage green at skinners heaven is not Dark Foliage Green.
After a lot of searching round the web the 'recommended' RGB was 59 59 49 for Dark Foliage Green.

Updated original pic, spinner and rear band now the correct "Sky Blue" color.
