<snappy salute> Thanks to our North American Sargents for your service to our continent.

I dug out my Spitfire book and couldn't find anything about color. Everything else I have shows light green. Sorry can't be of more help.

FSM had a article about the different configurations of guns on the Spit in 2002 not sure which issue though. If you could find the copy it may help you. CHIMO!!!!

Spitfire Gun Bays
Posted by ADleitch on Thursday, January 23, 2003 7:30 AM
Hi there,
Building Hasegawas Spitire Mk XI 1/48, adding CMK's exterior set and gun bays (both execellent castings).

Question: Both Hasegawa and CMK say the bays were painted RAF Interior Green, if memory is still working they were actually a semi metellic grey, any one know the right choice?

I have Dr Price's execellent book "Spitfire" which my commanding officer borrowed to look through, and is away so thought you guys could help much faster.

If consirdering Hasegawas Spitfire I would recommend these sets, now trying to find the cockpit set and squadron was out of stock (first time ever I have known they to be out of stock). The exterior set also has an extension to correct the length problem in the fuselage.

Thanks for the help everyone.
