ajaycad Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Probably been covered before, but can anyone suggest acrylic paint codes for RAF roundels circa 1944 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmayhew Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Fair question! Perhaps to help narrow things a bit: Presumably we are talking 'factory fresh'? Allowing for scale factor or not? And most importantly, which company?? Eg Tamiya, Gunze, Lifecolor etc? Cheers Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave J Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I used Mr Color Lacquers on my Spitfire... If you can get the Gunze colours here is the crossovers - C326 Blue = H326 C329 Yellow = H329 C327 Red = H327 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajaycad Posted January 24, 2014 Author Share Posted January 24, 2014 Not too fussy as to which brand although I have a soft spot for Gunze products, any brand is fine it's the colour accuracy I'm more concerned with. Probably best to go with factory fresh, then I can fade/weather as required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
