MarcV Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Good day all, I'm ordering the ZM F-4G. Does anyone know if MRP carry those colours in their range and what they are? Thanks for helping! Marc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alt-92 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Euro 123 scheme you mean? (yes there were multiple variations even in that one) AFAIK the grey was a 1-1 replacement for the Tan in SEA and would be FS36081 https://mrpaint.sk/farby/lietadla/USA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be a couple of weeks before I get to spraying, but I am intrigued to see how they work out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit that I have never seen a Mercedes automobile painted with matte USAF camouflage colour. Do you have a photograph to share?

bentwaters81tfw Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 No I don't but our paint supplier informed us of this when they produced a paint batch for our A-10. If I get time today, and remember, I will check the paint locker as he made us some aerosols as well as the 25 litre drums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElectroSoldier Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 I thought the Euro 1dark green was a different dark green to the SEA dark green, while the tan was replaced by FS 36081 (Euro 1) dark grey (Also used on the KC-135, B-1B, B-52 in various different schemes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-10's, for one, used FS34092 as the lighter green for their standard scheme, Phantoms did not, retaining the FS34102. Cheers, Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Andre Pretty sure 34092 was the darker green along with 34102 and 36081 for the A-10 Euro scheme. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Growing up in the 1970’s & 80’s I can remember talk and photo’s of aircraft painted in modified Euro1 but called Euro2 ? Were the descriptions correct or were they misinterpreting photo’s of Euro1 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Later, Dave Just to avoid confusion, these are the colors for the F-4 version of Euro I (only), per the OP's original question. As noted above the A-10 wore another version using 34092/34102/36081 (as the official scheme - there were variations before this was standardized as a replacement for the MASK gray scheme). The official Euro I scheme for transport and utility types substituted 36118, a lighter gray, for 36081, using the same greens as the A-10 - though the darker green was also subject to some odd variations, most notably on a number of the C-5 fleet. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binbrook87 Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 There are variations in euro 1 though on F-4s. The grey I'm pretty sure was one of two shades...early schemes used a charcoal type 36081, then later changed to a lighter gunship grey 36118. Also the dark green 34079 varied from a dark green to an olivey brown with fading etc. Always worth consulting some photos of your particular machine that you are modelling. Only the 34102 seemed to be fairly consistent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iainpeden Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 The finish (from ultra matt to satin) could affect the shade of the gray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
