                        Hi all,
                        The kit looks great OOB, I am really looking forward to this :)
                        What would be your advice be on the interior colour of the WWII IL-2?
                        I mainly use Tamiya colours but I am sure I can not find a 1-1 match.

                        As always

                        Its a hideous blue.

                        What i did was mix some xf-23 with some xf-8 starting with a fair amount of light blue and slowly adding the dark blue untill i got about the right colour. I think i added a touch of black and interior green too. Cant quite remember. Whatever you do, make sure you mix some thinner and retarder in with it or it becomes real thick and gluggy real quick.
