You mentioned black as oockpit colour in P-47Ns? Am I right that, that happened post-war . late 40s, early 50s maybe? In other words, any Ie Shime or Iwo Jima subject should be Interior Dark Dull Green (as MRp calls it)? Just happened to stumble upon that.. Knew I have read about black cockpits for Ns before - but forgot (and iirc some P-51s had that treatment too?). Just painted my Revell N Dark Dull Green.... (2 Big And Too Heavy probably) The August 1945 EMI has no mentioned of it ( though that doesn't mention DDG either, still only referring to TZC ) and the Detail & Scale book just says that many ANG N's had the cockpit's painted black so I suspect it was done post war at overhaul like the P-51D's that had their cockpits painted black. So yes I would just stick to DDG for a wartime airframe. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paramedic Posted October 24, 2021 Author Share Posted October 24, 2021 Thanks. TZC- is the tinted ZC, with 1/10 of black in it? or some such. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how much black Republic added as the EMI only states to add "tinting enamel - black" but doesn't give a quantity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best way to be kept informed about them is to sign up to the RR newsletter from the web site. We pretty much only send out newsletters when there are new products. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, do you have a European distributor, as the direct shipping is a bit expensive for me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately not. We only charge the customer what Australia Post charges us. It's actually cheaper from here to there than from the UK to Australia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paypal is easy for the customer (I use it) but not so nice for the merchant. In special cases we can actually do it but it's a bit convoluted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
