NASA F-104 color question


Recommended Posts

I'm about to paint my 1/48 Hasegawa F-104G. Markings are the white, dark blue (provided in the kit wiu a gold border), and light blue on the bottom. Hasegawa gives a color call-out/mix on their instruction sheet for the light blue. I'm trying to find information on the FS number for the dark blue just in case the decals don't fit and for touch ups.

Below is a link to the 104 at the NASM with the scheme I'm painting.

NASA Lockheed YF-104A Starfighter (N818NA - 55-2961)

Thanks,

Chris

Try ModelMaster Ford/GM Engine Blue as a starting point. Lots of a/c modelers forget there's a whole rainbow of car colors available that are often either good matches, or good starting points for matching colors like this.
