At Sea Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 As mentioned in my 92 Squadron post earlier I planned to build a 1/48 Lightning in a Grey scheme. Here it is, 5 squadron from 1987, one of the last of the Lightnings in service. Built using the Airfix kit, out of the box, painted using Halfords Ford Polar Grey, Humbrol Dark Sea Grey and Humbrol light grey 27 (under the wings which looks much darker in the pictures). Flory wash and a satin varnish. Xtra Decal squadron markings and kit stencils etc. 34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Riot Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Ah she's stunning mate! I've got one in my stash, still can't decide between grey or grren/grey camo. Yours is fantastic, loving the colours. Is the Halfords polar grey the middle section? DSG on top? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
At Sea Posted October 21, 2018 Author Share Posted October 21, 2018 Thanks, the Polar Grey is the bottom half of the fuselage, basically Barley or Camouflage Grey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
