Zack Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 I was hoping to get back to the "Sd.Kfz 181 Tiger 1 SUPERTHREAD" and was checking my stash when... The old lady turned out to be something completely different - a Wasp I am actually very happy about the transformation of the faded old lady! Must have flipped the box in order to get something more sturdy then the Revell offering... Good Scotch has played me tricks before Now - anyone out there who can offer advice on this Dragon origin Revell rebox? Instructions suggest "light olive matt" for the interiors, what would that be for the box art depicted aircraft (1942). Your advice and any sort of suggestions here would be very much appreciated! Summer Greetings, stay sane and happy modelling! Zack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werdna Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Zack - 'light olive matt' is most likely RLM02, which was the typical early war colour for Luftwaffe interiors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tail-Dragon Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 At a guess "light olive matt" probably refers to RLM 02. https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235072075-best-rlm-02/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zack Posted August 14, 2022 Author Share Posted August 14, 2022 Thank you @Werdna, @Tail-Dragon : RLM 02 it will be Not sure how to mix that (using Tamiya acrylics) but someone suggested: RLM 02:- XF22:1 + XF49:1. I will give it a go. Think I am in way over my head with this one 😐 With regards Zack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 I remember getting one of these in to review, and was amazed by the sheer size of the box! I cut it down to about a third of the size after I'd finished with it, so I can see why it got shuffled into that old Tiger box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom216 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 How many times did you shake the box to get a wasp from a tiger?!😵 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
