Dirkpitt289 Posted July 18, 2012 Author Share Posted July 18, 2012 I forgot to post this in the beginning so here it is now. Looking at the instructions and the colors called out doe the build I found this one. Anyone know what color this is? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dirkpitt289 Posted July 18, 2012 Author Share Posted July 18, 2012 Thanks for looking Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Lol propellor color! Did these have wooden props? Doubtful. So it's probably black unless they were unpainted? I know nothing about this aircraft but that's funny. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dirkpitt289 Posted July 18, 2012 Author Share Posted July 18, 2012 The color is actually a brown-ish color. Rust is close and in this instance I'm going to be using Tamiya Hull red. Funny thing is the day after I felt I exhausted my options and settled on the Hull Red I found the actual color at my LHS. They are very very close so I let it go. I will get the "Prop Color later on for some other IJN/A aircraft I want to build. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChippyWho Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Nice subject -looks like we're gonna have big fun on the bayou with this one! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CorsairMan Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 I am seeing these more and more and I love them. The design is so unusual - I would have thought it derived from a 1990s arcade game and not an actual airplane. Can't wait to see you paint it up - how are you going to go with it? Green/grey or something unique? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dirkpitt289 Posted July 19, 2012 Author Share Posted July 19, 2012 Thanks for the kind words guys. Its going to be IJN Green over IJN Gray. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
