1/32 Swordfish

Somebody please HELP ME!

My eyes are really playing me up at the moment. I am trying to complete my Trumpeter Swordfish but am having real problems matching the "sky"colour called out by the instruction sheet!.

I have been trawling through the various builds here and on other forums but am hitting a brick wall in terms of the correct shade which appears to vary from an extremely light grey to a light grey green.

I have fired some Humbrol 90 over the relevant parts but am still not convinced.

Three photos which bely the actual tinge of greenish grey in the flesh.

it looks almost grey here

yet looks slightly more cream /green on the following shots.

Please help, whats the correct colour?

Here is an original panel from a Swordfish , which does show the sky colour. You can see the original colour , which has been protected from dirt and u/v light under the under the number.

hope this helps .
