                        Hello.  Does anyone know how to mix, either from Tamiya or Model Master paints, the correct blue-green for the interior of Trumpeter's Mil Mi-4A Hound A and Mil Mi-24V Hind-E helicopters?  Or, is the color readily available?   Thanks for the help.

                        The color is available from Testors in their Model Master line.  It is called USSR Interior Blue/Green.

                        Does it have the metallic sheen that I see in some of my reference images, or is the color not supposed to be metallic?  Thank you.

                        The color is not supposed to be metallic.  I think what you are seeing is areas that are rubbed thin and the underlying aluminum is showing through.

                        Okay, I thought it might be something like that.  I appreciate your help!  Thanks a lot!!
