    Just catching up with this Spiros, looking at the three choices it looks like the colour should be IJN grey !

    Thanks my friend @kalamazoo! True, IJN gray is written at the instructions, however, by examining seasonal pics I l am towards aluminum...

    Found a net pic of a magazine depicting a Zero, a Judy and a Jill, all captured... I would bet the Zero is IJN gray, but the Judy looks to be in aluminum, a shade I plan to replicate by spraying matt clear on the model as a final coat.

    I used Hu11 silver that I plan to coat with matt clear in the end, my friend @lis.

    Very nice painting, Spiros @fiveten
    The aotaki color looks very good, as does the buffed Hu11 😉

    Cockpit in progress. The Beaver Corp PE instrument panel (also a gift inside the Judy box from my friend @lis) is, simply, wonderful...
