Polish aircraft colors.
Posted by rmontesb on Tuesday, September 17, 2019 1:34 PM

Hello fellow modellers!

I have recently started building a Mikro72 1/72 LWS Czapla, and deceide to use Polish markings.

The instructions indicate that the interior color is light green, and the fuselage + upper wings/stabilizers, should be painted khaki. Bottom fuselage + wings/stabilizers are to be painted light blue.

With respect to the interior, does any body know if light green is correct/accurate? 

Looking at pictures of the same kit already built, I´ve noticed a difference with respect to the khaki color used by the modeler. I guess that the camera + light tend to distort the picture.Crying

Anyway, Tamiya offers two different khaki options: XF-49 Khaki and XF-51 Khaki Drab. Confused I would appreciate any suggestions as to which one is correct/accurate.

Thanks in advance for your responses.

Happy modelling!

You might get more answers in the Aircraft forum, too.

You can buy a Hataka HTK-AS01 Polish Air Force paint set. You will get the best color match.
