goose Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 I've asked same question with no joy. Only available in Revell kits 1/144 and 1/48 scale, which is a shame as it would look great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

techniquest Posted April 14, 2017 Share Posted April 14, 2017 It's possible to do as a home-paint job; just do your research (plenty of photos on the web) and take your time. This one is actually 1/48 scale, but it was built 2+ years ago, way before either of the Revell kits were released. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

techniquest Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 (edited) Karlo - there are reference photos all over the place; just google 'Bronze Tiger Typhoon' and a whole host of images should come up. Here are some: Typhoon Tiger The colours I used for the main bronze were Tamiya copper (XF6) mixed with a little clear orange. The claw marks and tiger eyes were home-made decals. Have a look at the links here for both mine and 'Takamota's' original threads about our builds.

Tomppa B Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Absolutely nothing prevents you from taking a peek at the Revell Bronze Tiger instructions, that very conveniently are in colour: https://www.revell.de/fileadmin/import/images/bau/03949_%23BAU_EUROFIGHTER_BRONZE_TIGER.PDF And you can also take a look at what the decal sheet looks like at: https://www.mojehobby.pl/products/Eurofighter-Bronze-Tiger.html Just click on the picture and it will become quite large Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just building this and was trying to get the colour right. You mixed Copper XF6 with orange clear gloss X26? What ratio? 75-25 as suggested in the instruction guide?

PhoenixII Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 @Sharknose The colour used was from the AUDI range called 'pearlorange metallic' made by Standox, RAL2013. Design for the Bronze Tiger was done by one of the guys on here, who goes by the name of @bushande HTH Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharknose Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Cheers Paul. I've done a bit of messing and will mix in the ordinary orange gloss. Might not be right but a test of the paint made me happy and if different then great. I'm never winning awards so I'll settle for that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhoenixII Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Thanks for that @JayBee must have misconstrued @bushande original post and substituted the design. The colour though is correct, as bushande reported being told the colour by the paint shop. Shame that the Ghost Tiger scheme was so short lived.

Sharknose Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Designing custom paint jobs for jets. What a terribly boring and mundane job that must be!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive looked on the Standox website but cant seem to find it. It is not Standox Exclusive. Just do a search for "RAL 2013" at Google. But I think it is a better idea to mix the colors using modelling paints. Original colors for 1:1 cars and similar have too coarse metallic pigments. In my opinion it looks not good on using this paints on small scale models. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spejic Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Someone did this scheme using Tamiya X-34 metallic brown and I think it looks spot on. https://www.kampfgruppe144.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3700 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
