king of the britains Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Hi All This was in the Tools and tips forum already so I'll try to get right to the point. If you want to paint a modern eagle with acrylic and you're having trouble with findng the correct color, try this. Usng Acryl paint: Top coat is (obviously) F-15 Dark gray (FS36176), for the lighter shade: 2 parts Flat Gull Gray and 1 part Euro One gray. You may need to adjust the ratio a little bit, but it's a perfect match Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dennis the peasant Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 And who made you king? Dennis Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pete Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) Probably by exploiting the workers. By hanging on to outdated imperialist dogma which perpetuates the economic and social differences in our society. Or in other words, some watery tart threw a sword at him.

Bobski Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Xtracrylix provide the correct colours for the Mod Eagle scheme as part of their range. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
UKPonchoMan Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 They do... but be warned as Xtra... hasn't exactly been close to FS595b recently... I made that mistake with their enamel Mod Eagle grays - forgot to check against the FS fan deck until AFTER I'd painted... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
