Thanks for the reply Mark. I think those Revell colours match the RLM colours 74 and 75.

It's a massive beast but looking good!

Cheers

I don't mind the masking but had a nightmare with the canopy after taking the tape off before the paint had got in and layed itself inside the canopy had to carefully take the canopy out again and clean it all up, was thinking next time to use pvc glue for the canopy but clear fix is easier to lift a part out if it kaks on you. Think I would like to make this one again just for the practice its a great plane and great fun to make also I think a bargain for the size of it.

That's a great looking paint job.Revell do some great kits and are always great value for money.The new release 1/32 Heinkel 219 is under £50!.Saw it at the show and it looks fantastic.Dont know how they do it for the money.Volume of sales I guess.Also saw The Zokei Mura version which must cost at least 3 times as much.looked an amazing piece of engineering but I'd rather have the Revell.More than good enough for my limited talents.
