Italeri V-22 Osprey
Posted by stevestuff25 on Sunday, April 3, 2011 9:57 AM

I am going to make a Italeri V-22 Osprey and I was wondering what your suggestions of colors to paint it might be. I have looked at some pictures and I like the greener colors more. Thanks Bow Down

You are out of luck with the green, unless you want to build a test version.  All operational aircraft are in shades of gray.

USAF CV-22A  in dark over light grey.  The USAF colors are AFSOC Gray (closest is Gunship Gray (FS36118) on top and Light Gray (FS36492) underneath.

USMC MV-22A in a similar dark over light grey.  The USMC colors are Medium Gray (FS35237) on the upper surfaces and Light Ghost Gray (FS36375) on the sides and underside.

Small correction. Marine Corps V-22's are in a three tone gray scheme, not two.

Upper surfaces are 35237, middle is 36320 and the bottom/inner sides are 36375
