Steve147 Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Has anyone built the above model? If so, can you tell me what colour #7 (sections 11-a, 17, 17-a, 25 and 42-a) is supposed to be? There is no indication of this colour either on the box or in the build instructions. I have assumed it is white (goggles on pilots and lower struts on undercarriage), but I'm not too sure this is the correct colour for the attached bomb (section 42-a). I have checked scalemates to see if they list the instructions, but to no avail and have also emailed the company, but no answer as yet. Thanks in advance.

Graham Boak Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 I don't have the kit, but silver/aluminium would seem to be more suitable. It's what I use when I need to paint goggles, and it sounds right for part of an undercarriage leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve147 Posted June 1, 2021 Author Share Posted June 1, 2021 I received a reply from Zvezda about an hour after posting this. The colour is metallic grey or metallic steel, (Tamiya XF-56). Can't do anything about the goggles as pilots are in situ. However, I should be able to paint other parts. Thanks Graham for suggestion. Hopefully, Zvezda will amend their instructions for the kit.

Tbolt Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 I've got the Pe-8 boxing and it's right there on the back page of the instructions in the colour chart; 7 - Model Masters 1780 Steel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
