Mikeew Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Hi All, Not being to hot on the current US gray jets, I have some questions. The colours needed for the new Revell 1/72 F-22 Raptor are quoted in the instructions as : FS36375 Light Ghost Gray FS36251 Navy Aggressor Gray FS36176 Dark Grey This info I gleaned from the FSM painting/weathering special published July 2007. However, these are from a table of colours for "US Military colours 1955-2001" Being the Raptor is so new, are these colour quotes 1)relevant 2) correct? Also could anyone recommend a paint manufacturer for these colours? (acrylics) Is there anywhere on the internet where you can see colour chips and/or reference charts for FS No,'s cross referenced with model paints available? Many thanks from a Gray confused Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jennings Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 FS595 is irrelevant for the F-22. It uses super-secret stealth paint that looks different from every angle and every kind of light. It has a distinct metallic sheen to it under most conditions. FS is irrelevant. Prepare to be assimilated. Resistance is futile. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
