burner12 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 I recently started the Academy 1/350 Perry class, and read the color for ships is Haze Grey. However is there a need to add white so the color is too scale and not too dark? If so by how much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rusty White Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Always remember that the color in the bottle is 1 to 1 scale and you are viewing the model at 1/350 scale. I always add Testor Camouflage Gray (an off white to colors when painting. How much? It's difficult to say, but I would suggest 1 part to three.

ShutterAce Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 I have a pic somewhere taken on the deck of an OHP class ship and it sure looks Gunship Gray to me. I've got one half built and that is what I am considering using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
