flybywire Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Hi! If i'm going to build a Czech/Swedish/Hungarian Gripen, what FS would be correct or most appropriate to use for the darker shade on the upper part of the plane? I would appreciate it if you could also provide me with the brand/s that carry that particular FS. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mike C Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 +1 on Dark Ghost Gray. Most hobby paint brands (except Tamiya) carry this colour in their range. My favourite is Gunze Aqueous Hobby. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

levixhu Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Hungarian NATO MiG-29s painted are RAL 7000 / RAL 7040 and more lighter than Gripens! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scotthldr Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 (edited) The only Gripens that are painted differently are the South African ones which have FS36118 on the topsides. All others Swedish, Czech, Hungarian and Thai are the same. Edit: Sorry just noticed that the above post is referring to MIG 29's?
