Looks great!

 

What colour did you for the Inter Green? Looks a tad light in the photos but that could be light playing tricks...

Looks like Tamiya XF-71 Cockpit Green as called out in the instructions.  The 1:32 Tamiya Spits Mk.XIVe have XF-71 color call out.  This color is also used (call out in Tamiya instructions) for 1:32 TAM IJN A6m2 and A6M5 aircraft interior. 

 

Guess the big question:  Is it correct for RAF interior?  Vallejo Model Air recommends 71.095 Pale Green for RAF interior which appears darker than TAM XF-71.

 

Regardless, beautiful work Do335b6.  My Mossie will be coming out after I clear my bench of current projects.

Its actually the Tamiya color Sky which is suppose to be closer to British cockpit Green, This is the color they used for the 1/48 scale Spit and Mossie. I think it's more convincing then XF-71.

I think there is a difference regarding British interior greygreen. The war years colour was a bit lighter than the generally accepted colour by modellers nowadays. That was a postwar colour.
