Colors for Polish PZL 37B "Los"?
Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, February 19, 2004 5:16 PM
I'm building the Mirage Hobby 1/48scale PZL 37B "Los" Polish bomber with the Eduard PE accessories. The kit instructions indicate wheel wells, interior, insides of canopy frames and wing "bombays" as "aluminum." I haven't found any good references to contradict this instruction, but it doesn't seem practical that some kind of paint or coating wasn't used on these areas.Confused [%-)]

Anyone know what colors to use?Banged Head [banghead]

The kit also designates the upper external A/C color as a discontinued Humbrol number. Any suggestions for overall scheme for Polish bombers?Banged Head [banghead]

You are directed to paint it aluminum because it's a natural metal finish - the real aircraft did not have paint in that area but was just bare aluminum. I built this beast before - what a pain - and you can find a construction review on my site along with a color listing. Good luck, you're going to need it.
