Troffa Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 OK, Caveats ahoy here: Assuming that the GR4 you are going to build is in the overall Medium Sea Grey (to British Standard BSC381 637) scheme, then it would appear that the closest paint in the Vallejo scheme is 70.870 Medium Sea Grey. Whilst this sounds great, Vallejo Medium Sea Grey is actually matched to the US Federal Standard 595 colour (or should that be color?) FS 26270 which is, according to the links below, is close, but not quite a match for the British version of the Colour. If it were me, it would probably be close enough for Jazz.

Birchy1964 Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 Thanks Troffa, literally 60 shades of grey ! I used Vallejo sky grey 70.989 on my RAF Typhoon which came out looking ok , I will probably end up using a few various shades of Vallejo Med sea grey and dark sea grey , thanks for your help ,Birchy Uk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
