25 pounder gun and Quad colour question |
|
Hi all
I have here the Tamiya 25 pounder gun and quad etc kit and was wondering if anyone could tell me please
A) what colour to use for british dark yellow?
B) What colour the interior of the Quad should be?
For some unknown reason the instructions only give colours and not paint numbers.
TIA
Pete

Hi Pete
64 thousand dollar question Unless you are doing it as 'fresh', I'd use either Light Stone or Portland Stone as a base. Buff would so do too as once you start to weather them down you should get close to the right colour.
If the FAT was destined for the desert originally then the interior would be the same as the exterior. If the vehicle was re-assigned from Europe/England then the interior would have been green.
You will find the official colours here:
