Tamiya duck egg blue

[Yeet yeet i dont like beet]

What would be the way to mix duck egg blue color with tamiya paints?

I was thinking two parts xf-23 light blue and 1 part xf-53 neutral grey.

Would it work?

Hi there, do you mean like RAF Sky?

This is the color i need.

That's an interesting colour, but doesn't seem to match any version of Sky, which was also known as "duck egg blue".  Sky is more of a light green than a light blue.  What do you want to use this colour for?

Hi.

 

I came here looking for information about this color. I understand that the American P-400s used British or very similar colors (problems of understanding when interpreting the RAF requirements regarding their colors, it seems). My intention is to use it on an Arma Hobby P-400 that I am waiting for.

 

Vallejo Model Air has a reference with this name. But, although I have not seen it personally, it seems to me from photographs that it is too dark a blue, with too much body to be the correct tone. I think Humbrol has another reference, but I don't like these paints at all.
A mix of Tamiya or Gunze paints, if possible, would be a great help.
Could Gunze's H-323 Light Blue with lots of white Tamiya's XF-2 be a start?

 

Thanks.

 

Andrés.

Hola de nuevo....

 

Estoy buscando y acabo de encontrar esto: AK Real Color ofrece RC 241 con el nombre Duck Egg blue, asociado con FS-35622

 

https://ak-interactive.com/product/duck-egg-blue-fs-35622-10ml/

 

Gunze ofrece con ese número de Norma Federal, que quiero creer que es equivalente al color original designado como DEB, la referencia H-314.

Tendría que probarlos pero parecen correctos. ¿Opiniones sobre esto?

 

Andrés.
