Lufhansa colour scheme in the late 1950's

I am hoping for advice in replicating the Blue and yellow paints used on Lufthansa Super Connies of the 50's.

 

Can anybody point me to any alternative for Revell's Blue No. 52 and Yellow No. 310 in the Humbrol or Xtracolor range?

 

Thanks

Hello again

 suggestd

I'm having difficulty in displaying the Paint conversion chart correctly on my laptop.

 

I'm endeavouring to model a VW bus in Lufthansa colours but I do not have access to the Revell paints suggested on the instructions

 

Can anyone suggest a Humbrol or Xtracolor  alternative?

 

Thanks again

Gooney,

 

From various sources, I have surmised that:

 

Revell 52 (Blue) equates to Humbrol 14

 

Revell 310 (Yellow) equates to Humbrol 197 - which is discontinued, and there is no Xtracolor substitute - so you'll have to mix it using yellow and orange.

 

Cheers!
