Whaz up laxman,
The overall color of the a/c is Light Ghost(Compass) Gray w/ Drk Ghost(Compass) Gray on the upper sections of the fuselage(check w/ references) Cant recall FS #'s right now sorry
Didn't Model Master make the above colors in spray can form??
You really dont need a air brush to do this(at least I dont feel)
It would not be very hard to paint the a/c a two tone scheme.
Spray the overall color(Lt Ghost Gray) and than use "non poruse" surgical tape(wide band) and mask off the area(s) that you do not want to get affected by the dk gray. Remember to spray the dk gray in light coats.
This may seem hard but it really aint. O man I kinda went off subject know didn't I[:0].To answer your question I would use a Light Ghost gray for the overall color if you do not want to do a two scheme job.
Be happy in what ever you do cause the Cobra will turn out fine. Please share some pics w/ us OK.
Flaps up,Mike
