I've been working on "Bomb" for two & a half days now.All assemblies,turret,hull & undercarriage complete & prepped for painting.I looked thru the paint selections & "voila",found the closest color for dark olive drab,which I previously painted a Bristol Beaufighter a few years back.The color is
Humbrol extra dark sea grey item#HX6_enamel.The color is actuaally dark green & it matches closely to Canadiaan army WW2 vehicle
color requirements.It is much darker than say Testor's OD.Anyone else out there aware of this Color?.Now going after a jeep.universal carrier & FAT plus limber & 25 pounder.I'm on a roll.Only problem is I can't see too well after all the tiny parts,even with modeler magnifying glasses.
