Eric Mc Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Because it's too black - especially in 1/72 or 1/144 (the scales I mostly build in). If you have a look at "blacl" propellers they are usually not really deep black. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck1945 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 What Eric said. For me, black is too stark unless it is the inside of an intake or such. Tamiya’s NATO Black isn’t quite black, it looks the part on props but is off by just a bit, more ‘scale-like’ if you will. Likewise I typically use a mix (approx 1/2&1/2) NATO Black and Tamiya’s German Grey for tires 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
