Fandango Posted September 27, 2011 Share Posted September 27, 2011 Hi folks, I have been using the eduard pre coloured "zoom" etch sets for a while now to dress up the cockpits of my British and German fighters, but I have noticed that whatever the cockpit colour should be (Interior green grey for Brits, RLM 02 or RLM 66 for the German planes) the colour of the etch doesn't match the paint I use (White Ensign or Xtracolor enamels). Does anyone know which range of paint the eduard etch is "matched" to? Cheers Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don McIntyre Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 I really don't think it's critical to get a perfect match. Real cockpits weren't painted as a monolithic assembly as we modelers tend to paint them, so color variations could be pretty significant. That being said, it would be nice if Eduard suggested good match(es)… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Ogilvie Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Strongly suspect they will be working to Pantone colours - which can be difficult to match exactly with standard model colours. Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
