Section | Recommended Colour | Selected Colour | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
Main hull green | YC07 or YC08 or IJA Green H60 + Interior Green H58 + Bright Green H26 + White H1 (40:30:20:10) | Mig AMMO Acrylic Color IJN Mitsubishi Green (A.MIG-0265) + Mig AMMO Acrylic Color Mitsubishi Interior Green (A.MIG-0270) or Mig AMMO Acrylic Color Pale Green (A.MIG-0060) + Mig AMMO Acrylic Color Mitsubishi Interior Green (A.MIG-0270) | IJN/Mitsubish Green A.MIG-0060 is a lighter green (more yellow?) than Pale Green A.MIG-0265. This broadly corresponds to YC07 and YC08 options. My preference is towards the lighter option. May benefit from a drop or two of pure white. |
Main hull dark green | YC09 or Dark Green H36 | Mig AMMO Acrylic Color RLM70 Schwartzgrun (A.MIG-0232) or Mig AMMO Acrylic Color RLM80 Olivegrun (A.MIG-0248) | Mainly used for the leading edge 'crest' on the front of the Garmillas ships. |
Main hull orange | Orange Yellow H24 + Wood Brown H37 (70:30) | This is for the scoop/eye/ramjet intakes and need to be feathered from yellow to deep orange/red. | |
Engine nozzle | Steel H18 | AK Extreme Metal Duraluminum | Already in collection - very nice metallic colour. |
