Russian ships colors... Help needed
Posted by Zero Enna on Friday, December 29, 2006 11:35 PM

For you that have built Russian ships as Sovremenny's or Kirov's or Kuznetsov's: I've noticed that many Russian Ships have orange deck surfaces... I'm modelling a 1/720 Kuznetsov, and this carrier also has orange decks... So I'm wondering, which shade of orange must I use? The Italeri instructions didn't call for orange in the painting guide... maybe a mix is what I need... I have Insignia Red and Insignia Yellow... proportions?... Any advice should be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Regards.

Hi,

 It's not actually orange, but an orange-red. We have the Russian Deck Red accurately matched and available in our Colourcoats enamels, as item M 13. We have no minimum order requirement on paints, and we ship worldwide. You'll also find accurate Russian greys there too.
