Bandai 1/72 Resistance X-Wing Colours

Post by GangsterNo1 »

In case any of you are also building the Bandai 1/72 Resistance X-Wing model, I just thought I'd pass on some info about the paint colours if you dont want to use the stickers / decals. Mine recently arrived from Japan so I started looking at the painting / weathering options.

I have just spent some time reading the Japanese symbols and matching them from the instructions to the Mr.Hobby colour chart, with the help of this website: http://www.mech9.com/2015/07/gsi-creos- ... color.html. Hopefully it will save some of you some work.

X Wing

Light Grey
75% H21/C69
25% H62/C56

Dark Grey
60% H57/C73
40% H11/C62

Sky Blue
90% H11/C62
10% H5/C5

Pilot

Helmet / White upper flight suit
H1/C1

Flight Suit Orange
70% H24/C58
30% H33/C81
The colour chart also shows a + sign after these 2 colours but with no extra %. I cant match the symbols to any others on the chart so not sure what this is, sorry.
