Rob, if I told those were naval ship arsenals, you wouldn't be too upset?

  Have you tried them yet?

I think they will be too dark.

I believe, if this places these the way I collected and posted them the greens should be first?

These I believe when I saved these, they were part of a collection of nearest colors being gathered for a pdf from Nick's page

Aviation of Japan web site.

  You wanted to go with the all grey color scheme?

  Recent research from the Orient and it seems to be gaining the greatest acceptance is the Grey on the Zero was a color J3. A color not unlike

RLM O2. How about that? An ever closer modern color is Hemp/Lizard Grey. A standard color in the British range of camouflage colors.

The Humbrol mix above is wrong, I never did find the right colors to put to that right.

  The Model Master 'Springer' mix is

20X 1792 SAC Bomber Tan

11X 1768 White

0.9 parts 1734 Green Zinc Chromate.

  The bottom chart is a gradient of colors as the paint aged under different conditions.

  The days I remember of German aircraft being two shades of green and the Zero being white, then the accepted US Navy equivalent of Light Gull Gray and a yellowish Amber are kinda fading.

  But, then again, close enough is good. We build for us and my favorite, if it looks right, it is right.

  Let me know what you think, eh?

I am open to more learning and constructive feedback. We are all here for the benefit of learning this art form and to advance.
