Chr15 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Hello everyone, looking at doing a few Flankers in the Russian multi blue camo scheme. Just wondering what paints people used as the kits I have mention Mr Colour numbers but was thinking of using Tamyia x, xf and maybe Hataka Orange line. Just wondering if people knew of good colour match numbers. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tojo72 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 I used the Model Master Enamels, if you are able to get them I have always favored them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seawinder Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 My first go-to for Russian stuff is AKAN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muzz Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Akan were certainly my go to paint in the past for Russian/Eastern Bloc aircraft and I still have all their paints. However, although pricey, MRP have a good range of Flanker colours but for availability and price I’d look down the Hataka Orange line route. Just my 2 cents worth.

Zorglub Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 You have the AKAH ( in cyrillic ) AKAN ( européan alphabet ) which are given to be really very faithful . This is a Russian brand . The akhan colours are given to be really very faithful and to have an excellent match with the real colours. They have 3 ranges (Blue Line, Orange, line and Red Line according to your use (brush, or airbrush) and sets. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zebra Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I was looking for this yesterday as well - found it on the wayback machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20210119230027/http://www.theworldwars.net/resources/resource.php?r=camo_vvsmod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPuente54 Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I believe that both AKAN and Hataka offer good paint matches to Russian/Soviet aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WARDOG Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Navy Bird, Thank You for this EXCELLENT information! It should get me a lot closer to getting my Ruski aircraft painted correctly! I am also hoping AKAH make (or reference) some more of their colors for a Mozambican An-74, Ka-29, and some of the interior colors for cargo planes. Cheers, WARDOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
