Max Headroom Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Help! I need to get a quick build under my belt to get my enthusiasm for building fired up again. Nothing fancy, so I decided on the Hobbyboss F-86F-30 to be finished as a mk.4 in RAF service. Cheap, quick and readily available in Model Zone it will be an ideal bank holiday diversion. It will be in standard camo finish. My question is this; what colour are the cockpit/ejection seat, wheel wells and the inside of the airbrakes? I will pick an easy scheme as I will only be using my spare decal stash for markings. I think SAMI did a profile not long ago so will dig that out for inspiration. The results will be posted for your inspection. Thanks in anticipation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonymousAA72 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I'm currently building an RAF F4 in 1/72nd scale.....The interior was black on the Canadair Sabre F2 & F4 (or F1 & F2 - it gets a bit complicated!) as used by the RAF. Some have said that the interior was a medim grey but I think this was only on the F5 or F6 - I stand to be corrected there!!! Interiors of wheel wells and airbrake bays was silver.... ..at least thats how I've painted mine!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
