Hi guys,
I'm just about to start this build.
Could you help me with some paint info. I have worked out the main colour call outs but could you tell me what colours in need for the exterior its calling for.
flat light ghost gray fs 36375
flat dark ghost gray fs 35320 would like to pain in tamiya paint as that it what my local shop has.

There is more !!! sorry!!

I would like to detail it up a bit, so do any of you chaps have any info or direct me somewhere that I can use for reference photos

cheers guys in advance.

Matt

Gday Matt,

Depends if you want super accuracy.
I used Tamiya Dark Sea Grey and Light Sea Grey paints on my A-10,
not sure how accurate they are but no complaints from me.

Good walkarounds for details here:

Mr Hobby do both these FS colours in their Aqueous Range. The paint callouts are;
FS 36320 - Mr Hobby H307
FS 36375 - Mr Hobby H308
both are in a semi gloss finish, but that shouldn't be a big issue. I have found Mr Hobby to be very nice paint so far.
