Re: A6M2 Model 21 Zero repaint project

Here's a test shot of the color I plan on using. Tell me what you think.



The proposed color, depicted in the lower part of the photo, was sprayed on a scrap model wing with a quick decal for color profiling. I am working on the theory of 10% scale lightening effect for paint value (not hue) on 1/48 scale.

Keep in mind the background board is pure white; accordingly, the sample Zero color is a bit lighter than shown. I didn't want to make many digital adjustments to the photo. Lanslide, how does the color look?
