Blue Angel Yellow
Posted by Bullet27 on Sunday, August 9, 2015 8:00 PM

Can anyone tell me if there is the proper Blue Angel Yellow available in a spray can? I have a 1:48 F\A 18 that I am building as an Angel and have the decals and have all the Blue down.  Just need the yellow.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  This model is a presentation piece and I want this to look right.  Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the help on the paint.  I think after picking up the yellow and looking at the decals, that they are too dark.  They look like yellow orange than yellow.  Can someone suggest a good spot to get the decals in 1:48 scale?

There are a lot of online hobby stores to choose from. Mega Hobby, Squadron, Sprue Brothers, to name a few.

Again thanks to everyone for helping a poor rookie out! lol  Further research proved my decals to be the proper shade of yellow and they matched the Blue Angel Yellow perfectly.  I have done research on previous projects, but nothing like what has gone into this one.  It has really paid off.  I have built this as a gift and I wanted to make sure everything was as it should be.  Turns out it is the best one yet.  I will try to post pics of all my projects as soon as I can.  Thank you everyone again!!!
