I found this on HMS Cornwall for anyone that might have the Kit, and who might be interested in painting her in an unusual colour, I found the attachment below, they have Cornwall in her launch/trial colour and then further colours, which I'm now considering pts XF2 + 1 pt XF3 + 1 pt XF57. It could stand a fraction more XF2 and perhaps a fraction less XF57 but if I tweaked it then the proportions of the other colours would be really silly. We require this information to understand your needs and provide you with a better service, and in particular for the following reasons:

Lastly, I tried mixing Tamiya's old recommendation for RAF Dark Green, XF-61 Dark Green, with XF-81. This is a 1:1 ratio mix of the two: As a follow-up to the discussion threas Modeldad started earlier today regarding Tamiya's XF-81 RAF Dark Green 2, here are some comparisons I made using recently painted-out color swatches. The swatches were visually compared - very unscientifically, mind - to the Dark Green reference swatch in my copy of British Aviation Colours of World War Two. All comparisons and photos were taken indoors under "full-spectrum" incandescent bulbs, and the pics were shot with my iPad. So this is all very ad hoc, and no comparisons were made properly using daylight or a colorimiter. So with that gain of salt taken, here we are.This is the official colour used as one of the disrupters with Slate in the 'Caunter' scheme. In use on all types of AFVs and other vehicles in Egypt from mid to late 1940 till cancelled in December 1941. Mix: 7pts XF21 + 1pt XF19 +1pt XF4. Be careful with XF4 as even a little too much will throw this colour far too green. Err on the light side. This is the colour that replaced SCC 2 brown as the basic colour from April 1944 on for use in NWE and Italy to avoid the need to repaint US equipment. But NOT Bailey Bridges, these remained SCC 2 brown. Mix: 1prt XF24 + 1 prt XF4. This is a fraction dark compared to the standard but a touch of white or light grey will tone it down. At last the final colour for Caunter. Specified as the darkest colour to be used on vehicles painted with the Caunter scheme. Came into use in 1940 and apparently retained as one of the alternative colours to be used with the 1942 patterns.

mm in length, modeled richly with a powerful figure equipped with Mk.19 grenade launcher on the roof. Again, allowing for the sheen it's not a terrible match. Actually, viewed with the eye it's much closer in hue and chroma than it appears here.

The paint can be also thinned for airbrushing using Tamiya Lacquer Thinner. Using Tamiya Lacquer Thinner will yield faster drying results and a harder finish. The same issue confuses the Ceylon scheme below it. Admiralty Pattern 507B formula was not in use by 1942, but it makes no difference to a colour profile as 507A and 507B were exactly the same colour. These colours were the basic and disruptive colours respectively used from 1941 in UK and on vehicles in Tunisia, Sicily and Italy till end of the war in many cases. SCC1A was also used over SCC 15 in 1944-45.
