Luftwaffe F-104 colors


Recommended Posts

Sorry, these colours seem not being available from Mr. Color.

 

For RAL colours, Elita Lifecolours from Germany is a safe bet. These high quality paints are low odor lacquers and with their own thinner, the airbrushing behavior is like MRP! I prefer their gloss paints, those are decal ready and offer even slightly better airbrushing properties compared with the Elita Satin paints.

Hello all,

 

I just got the Kintetic TF-104G. The kit only quotes MG colors.

 

Does anyone know what the colors numbers are for Gunze / Mr. Color?

 

The main colors are:

Thanks for helping,

 

 

You may find a clue here (or at least a some thing very similar) :

Thanks all for the kind replies.

 

I'll probably go for Elita which I had never heard of before but seem to have an incredible range or Mr. Paint.

 

Has anyone used Elita? @Falcon, you obviously are happy with them but does it mean I need to buy dedicated thinner - no generic thinner?

 

Thanks all,

 

Marc.

Hello Marc

 

Mr. Hobby Leveling or AK Real Color thinner does work well, too. However, the Leveling stinks more. The Elita almost is odor free.

 

I have used the Elita (satin colours) on my Wingman Alpha Jet and mixes of glossy Elita paints on my current project, an Eduard NVA MiG-21M. I am very satisfied with the results.
