discussion Latest Build Help

[Guest]

Hi Chaps

I have started my latest build of which i will posting progress later. In the meantime i would appreciate your help.

My latest project is the old Airfix Refuelling set which I intend to use to pose with one of my hurries I built some time ago which you may remember?

The instructions are not very detailed and I was wondering what colour would you paint the interior of the cabs? Would this be as per the outside i.e for the Bedford R.A.F blue?

Thanks in advance

All the army trucks etc. I have ever been involved with were painted army green in the cab.

Even when the external paint was camouflaged outside, the cab was was dark green.

I do recall some preserved WW2 vehicles having a cream coloured bodywork in the cab, which I was asured was authentic.

Are there any military museum images online that may help?

If you can't find out, I suggest you choose. They are your models after all, and who is to say you are wrong?

Thanks fro the reply Peter,

Think I am going to go with the colour ''Sky'' as looking close to this picture the interior looks something like it I think? Having a lighter colour will make it a little lighter to see in to as the RAF blue is rather dark!
