Petarvu Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Hello, I got my Norm 81 A Hase F-4F 1/48 to painting stage. I have all Xtracolor gay shades for this camo . Great timing for coming Caracal decals ,if I understood correctly they will be available from around 15th of november, and i won't have to struggle with kit decals. Problem is I lost copy of ESCI F-4F 'toned down'1/72 instructions with apparently correct Norm 81 camo scheme. I red Hase P7 F-4F 1/48 instruction has mistakes. Where can I find correct color call outs and demarcation lines for this complicated scheme. I have old don color drawing but I cant tell which color is which...I am afraid I might make a mistake.. Any help is appreciated Cheers P Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PeepingBear Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 You might try this link: http://originalundmodell.de/reviews2016_3/hahen-48060.htm There are rather good drawings of the scheme. Google will offer you more resuls, just enter "Norm 81 F-4F" HTH JCT Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Please give me a couple of days - I am working on the final touches to the instruction sheet for the new F-4F sheet, and I will provide you with a set of drawings. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JayBee Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 There are different schemes for Norm 81, early and late. Esci instruction is wrong, example one of the bottom colors should be silver. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Spectre711 Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I have a bunch of DonColor camo schemes that I fond on a thumb drive I saved to Flickr. You might find it there depending on which one you want. https://www.flickr.com/gp/70058423@N07/itE53o Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I saved those years ago for quick reference and forgot about it. Too bad the site is no longer up, I miss it also. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Slartibartfast Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 (edited) Wow, lighting certainly impacts color saturation. In several of those photos, the port side looks quite faded due to the light source being to the left of the model. One shot of the starboard side provides a peek at the port wingtip and one can see it matches the hue and saturation of the starboard green since the angle of relfection is different fron the port side shots. Here's a lesson for those trying to interpret colors from historic photos. Nicely done camouflage. Edited November 16, 2018 by Slartibartfast Quote Link to post Share on other sites
