HMS Exeter

Hi guys

can someone recommend the correct shade of grey for the hull and deck for the Trumpeter HMS Exeter please.

I would prefer to use acrylic paint. 

 

I have looked on sovereign hobbies website but they have sold out of the grey they recommend.

 

Thank you

Yeah we're remaking that one. I was unhappy with the quality of the latest batch which wasn't up to standard.

 

We don't make acrylics anyway but the correct shade of grey is 507C like you've gleaned already.

Hi Jamie

Thanks for coming back to me.

I did drop you a note on your web site asking when you expect delivery of the mentioned paints, 

Do you have any idea when you may have stock in ?

Thanks

Sorry I get dozens of emails every day. I do try to reply but sometimes miss some in the traffic. We prioritise those about missing orders and stuff like that and usually put the others back to Mark as Unread to get them later when time permits.

 

I don't have a timeframe for having the enamel 507C back in stock I'm afraid. Not too long but I don't give dates or exact timescales or all the emails start flying in again!

No worries, I don’t intend starting the model yet So no rush.
 

Thanks again Paul
