Sea Hurricane Colors - Help
I've got a 72" KMP Hurricane which is need of repainting and I'm thinking of doing it as a Sea Hurricane for 885 Squadron off HMS Victorious. Wings Pallette has image. I know the undersurface is "sky" and the upper surface is "Extra Dark Sea Gray" for one colors but I'm not sure of the other. I think its Dark Sea Green. Does anyone know.

Thanks 800mzero. Dark Slate Gray. Now I can order the colors from warbird colors. A little pricey, but a good product. Hello Eric, how are things in Finland. Warmed up yet? Is your Hawk still flying. Mine has over 100 flights on it, got 3rd place in scale arf warbird event.

Nothing special going on here, summer is in good progress and our model field is in exellent condition.
Hawk is still in operational use, I just modified original wing to use H9 landing gear. Have to put matt laquer on and after that it is ready for test flight. After that, next job is take covering off from the wing I used last year and also rip covering off from H9 P-40 and modify that to be British Kittyhawk Mk I "London Pride" with desert gamouflage.
Problem with that Kittyhawk is that I have not found complete colour documentation. Only place where I know where that is available is old Airfix Kittyhawk kit, but that is not available in Finland. At least I have not found.
