robert conley Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 I just started on the Trumpeter 1/48 A-37B Dragonfly, and after seeing a photo on the internet of a Chilean AF A-37B in a Tan/Brown/Green camo scheme, thought I would love to paint mine in that scheme. Here is the photo I found: https://www.airhistory.net/photo/289815/J-629 Does anybody have more info on this scheme, especially what the paint colors would be?

PhilHoff Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Hello, I'd say it looks a lot like an Asia Minor scheme: tan special FS 20400, brown special FS 30140, green FS 34079 and grey FS 36622. As applied to iranian F-5, F-4 and F-14 (as delivered). HTH Philippe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hook Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 The Albatros "Ferocious Bugs" decal bonanza for the A-37 states FS30140 / FS23594 / FS34079 uppers over FS36622 for this scheme. The 23594 looks more like the shade on your pic than the 20400. HTH, Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Koktavý Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Hello, I have build the A-37 some time ago. As usual, I mixed the colours from Tamiya Acrilics, in this case it were some remnants from another colours, therefore I don´t know exact formulas. But as a reference , there was the Aztec decal sheet which says: Aproximate colurs: FS33727 + 10% White = TAN FS 33070 = Olive FS 30145 = Medium Brown FS 35630 = undersurface 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blimpyboy Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) Perhaps these colours, from Chilean company K4, may be of use: Otherwise, if you can't get the Aztec decal sheet guide, the Armycast decal sheet recommends 20140 (red brown), 30400 (sand) and 34079 (dark green) over 36375 (light ghost gray). I'm not sure how accurate this is - my money would probably be on the K4 recommendation... Edited April 21, 2022 by Blimpyboy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blimpyboy Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 (edited) Otherwise, d'you think the colours used on the Hunter in the middle of the bottom row (below - if your eyes can make 'em out...) might be better?
