Colour Chart
Paints Used
The colours listed for the TIE Advanced are mostly identical to the TIE Fighter and TIE Interceptor, so the same paint table (below) is common to both.
| Section | Recommended Colour | Selected Colour | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main body light gray | Neutral Gray H53 + White H1 + Blue Gray H42 (70:30:1) | Vallejo Model Air Faded PRU Blue (71.109) base colour Vallejo Model Air RLM78 Light Blue (71.101) highlights | The selected colours have more of a blue tint to them. This makes them closer to Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi than the flat grey of original Star Wars release. |
| Cockpit interior gray | Neutral Gray H53 | Vallejo Model Air Neutral Grey (71.051) | |
| Solar panel | Flat Black H12 | Mig AMMO Acrylic Colour Satin Black (A.MIG-0032) | |
