Felix Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Perhaps the hottest topic I have seen discussed/debated on the internet about this kit is the best choice for the "amber grey" used on the IJN Zero's. As you would expect, Eduard did a LOT of research themselves on this topic and if this interests you, even a little, I would strongly recommend you have a read of the article "The Colors of Zero" by Marian Holly on page 48 of the Jan 2022 Eduard INFO magazine. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boom Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 And just when it seemed that this contentious issue had been put to bed. :) From 2007 on j-aircraft.com https://www.j-aircraft.org/smf/index.php?topic=4769.msg34049#msg34049 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boom Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Eduard is a marvellous source of highly informed articles. For anyone not familiar with them find them here:https://www.eduard.com/info-eduard-1-9/ And inline with Japanese markings here is an article (in Eduard) from October 2022. It's on the Tainan Kokutai markings.https://www.eduard.com/out/media/InfoEduard/archive/2022/info-eduard-2022-10-eng-ed.pdf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boom Posted May 26, 2023 Share Posted May 26, 2023 Personally I'm in the ameiro colour scheme camp. There's enough information out by highly knowledgeable people there to support the findings. Besides which...... it's just such a cool colour! Who wants to fly a dull grey plane eh? 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit21 Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 My favorite thing to do in 46 was grab the most weathered, "this thing is on it's last legs" skin I could find. Zeros' look best like that for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
