Julien (UK) Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Can anyone point me to any references for the AP-2H I have a verry old conversion which gives me the basics but am looking for some decent refs to do a good job. Cheers, Julien Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Learstang Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Try this one - www.vah21.org. Lots of nice photographs. I used it a lot when I was putting my AP-2H together. Sadly, I've never finished the bird. I presume you're using the old In Country conversion set. It's a bit rough, but it seems to have most of the fiddly bits you need to make an AP-2H. Good luck with your Neptune and be sure and post pictures, even in-progress pictures would be great! Who knows, it might prod me into finally finishing mine.

It looks like the Pima Air Musem finally got around to repainting Napalm Nellie. Nice sites - I hadn't seen those before. When I get back to my AP-2H, I can use those photographs, hopefully to figure out the camouflage. Regards, Learstang Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steven H. McLain Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 It is my understanding that the color scheme is as follows: FS-36231 Dark Gull Gray FS-36440 Light Gull Gray 50 % Dark Gull Gray and 50% Light Gull Gray Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Learstang Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 It is my understanding that the color scheme is as follows:FS-36231 Dark Gull Gray FS-36440 Light Gull Gray 50 % Dark Gull Gray and 50% Light Gull Gray Thank you very much for the information, Steven! I've always wondered exactly what the proper greys were. Do you know of any premixed grey paint that would be an approximation of the 50% Dark and 50% Light Gull Grey (is there a Medium Gull Grey out there)? I'm very reluctant to mix paints because if I have to do any repainting, I never seem to get the mix ever exactly the same, and of course the original bottle of mixed paint has long since dried up.
