This is regarding the Revell/Monogram B-17G. I know many of you have done this project and I had a couple questions regarding color that were'nt really clear in the instructions.
1) The instructions call for the area behind the four engines to be painted zinc chromate. I know as a general rule, yellow zinc chr is used for wheel wells etc, and green zinc chr is used for the interior. Which one would apply for the engine area? and is zinc chromate even appropriate here (because on the real plane, that engine area would go farther back into the cowling, so it would seem a dark color would be appropriate to give an impression of depth)?
2) The instructions call for the center hubs that protrude forward from the props to be blue. That's all it says is just blue. Does anyone know specifically which shade of blue these tips were colored?
