drhornii Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I am trying to nail the colors on an Omni Air 767 and I am having issues with a few of the colors. I think I have the Ruby Mica color, or something close. One is the Silver Mica on the fuselage, trying to get a good match without the metallic? Next is the wing, that does not have Coroguard. Any idea of what colors to use on the wing (top & bottom)? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Trojan Thunder Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Not sure about your question about the fuselage? Do you want to use a non-metallic colour? Not sure if you have access to Xtracolor paints. They do a 2 part grey mica set. You can basically use any grey or silver as the base and then spray the mica treatment over the top. The wings (and horizontal stabs and engine pylons) will be Boeing 707 Grey ( FS16516 - Voodoo grey is a good match) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
drhornii Posted February 23, 2018 Author Share Posted February 23, 2018 My commander flies for Omni and he is trying to get a paint sample from them but they said the fuselage color is "Silver Mica". My issue is in 1/144 scale, any metallic flakes would be way out of scale. I am looking at different silvers but looking at photos, getting a right color seems difficult. At times it looks pearl white, other angles silver........I have orderered Xtracolor from Hannants or Roll models, will look into that. Will do the Voodoo gray on the wings. Thanks!
