About this deal

You may choose to restrict the collection or use of your personal information in the following ways: I never quite understand these complaints. But I'm not going to be one of those people who trot out "never had a problem" because that really annoys me and it's not helpful. So I will try to give some pointers. Just keep in mind that without being able to watch how someone uses a product, I may overlook some error which I haven't thought of. The resulting colour is slightly less rich than a sample matched to an original motorcycle part and slightly less brown than on a steel helmet in original colour, so a good average. What really is bothering me with the instructions, the Upper Hull above the Plimsoll Line and Superstructure, they've got it a Light Grey, Vallejo 907, Tamiya XF14 and Humbrol 147 with an addition of Model Master 1732, something I've never used, however, I wont be using this Light Grey, I really do feel a lot of Builders will be quite annoyed at the paint instructions, but like you Jamie, you'll probably throw them out altogether, which I really am now considering doing, seriously!

Deep Bronze Green is mixed by 8pts XF5 + 5pts XF62 = Old dark colour. You need a satin varnish over this for the depth of colour. The Indian Ocean scheme is generally correct, and names the correct paints but due to the legacy of people confusing paint recipes with paint colours and assuming 507A and 507B were different colours (they were most certainly not!), the depiction on the Indian Ocean scheme of the darker grey is a very dark. Mix: 5pts XF2 + 5pts XF15 + 1 pt XF52. Be careful with XF52 as too much will turn your resulting colour too mauve. Desert Pink needs of a definite pale pink appearance. The mix may benefit from a touch more white.Tamiya acrylic paints are made from water-soluble acrylic resins and are excellent for either brush painting or airbrushing. These paints can be used on styrene resins, Styrofoam, wood, plus all the common model plastics. The paint covers well, flows smoothly, and can be blended easily. Prior to curing, paint can be washed away with plain water. Parts of winch and smokeless launcher are also prepared Add changes to the expression of the model and broaden the range of the scene development.

The China Stations scheme is a much-repeated myth. It was white hull and Foreign Stations Grey (Admiralty Pattern 507C upperworks), not white and buff.I found this on HMS Cornwall for anyone that might have the Kit, and who might be interested in painting her in an unusual colour, I found the attachment below, they have Cornwall in her launch/trial colour and then further colours, which I'm now considering This is the colour that replaced SCC 2 brown as the basic colour from April 1944 on for use in NWE and Italy to avoid the need to repaint US equipment. But NOT Bailey Bridges, these remained SCC 2 brown. I just realized I have a bottle of GSI's Mr Color 361 RAF Dark Green (WW2) number from their RAF Color Set 2. I'll add a swatch of that one tomorrow when I have some time. I also have some related Humbrol enamel swatches I can throw in as well (and no, Humbrol 30 Dark Green is not close at all. Oddly, it still looks good when used on early-war RAF fighters though. But maybe it's just me). When it comes to Jamie, even me, as a fairly newish member, know about Jamie being so helpful, as he already has been to me on another couple of Models We require this information to understand your needs and provide you with a better service, and in particular for the following reasons:
