P.o Prune Posted April 1, 2022 Share Posted April 1, 2022 Hi... I'm not sure if this belongs here or in the figure thread. So feel free to move it if necessary. I'm looking for the Humbrol colours to the pilot of my 1:32 Spit. Boots and face I already have but I would like to get as close as possible to the trousers, the Irvin jacket, the helmet and the oxygen mask. Any suggestions?
