Tamiya paints for B-17G


Zaphod

Recommended Posts

I'm about to start the painting of my B-17G. I'm painting it as the Sally-B/Belle. What Tamiya colours should I be using? The Kitsworld instructions are a little vague. They say MId Grey, Pale Mid Grey, Olive Drab, Pale Olive Drab and Dark Green.

K.I.S.S  principle  XF-62 Olive Drab uppers and XF-53 Neutral Grey for undersides. Olive drab  is so variable.

Totally off topic but it's great to meet another Hitchhiker on here. Also great to see the only genuine Zaphod Beeblebrox as your profile pic as opposed the modern one :hobbyhorse:

tell me about it !

I much prefer the original (1981?) British miniseries for HHGTTG instead of the new movie version ; the movie deviated too much from the book series. :(

I don't think the movie was anywhere near the hype. I think it's only redeeming feature was it helped introduce HHGTTG to a whole new audience. Oh and Arthur's dressing gown.
