ClareWentzel Posted September 18, 2009 Report Posted September 18, 2009 I am looking for the approximate FS number for the RAF color Hemp. Also, what MM paint colors come close to Hemp? I am looking for the color to use on some interior panels on a MiG-21 MF. The instructions call for Hemp plus my reference book seems to show a hemp-like color. If you have any specific MiG-21 color references it would be better. David Klaus' book seems to call for FS 26492, 26496 and 36559. The latter looks closest but I am open to any suggestions.

ClareWentzel Posted September 19, 2009 Author Report Posted September 19, 2009 Thanks Keith. It gives me a good idea of what to use.
hotel26 Posted October 21, 2009 Report Posted October 21, 2009 Try MM 1704 US Armour sand, damn close or Tamiya XF-57 but add some olive drab to give it a greenish hue. FS is somewhere between XX271 through XX531. I'd go with MM #1704 and tell the Colour Police that they need a warrant and evidence.
