    I made two 500 lbs bombs in dark green. But after studying manual I found mistake. Manual suggest Mart Orange Yellow. Did you ever Heard about yellow non practise bombs?

    Props and bombs look great, my friend @lis! I have seen a few pics with RAF WWII practice bombs, which are light colored (pics are b/w).

    @lis the situation was very chaotic in those early days of the pacific war, so the research regarding bombs & weapons done by Airfix might just be accurate after all.

    To be honest, i would just stick to what you prefer, @lis. To me it's not that great of a deal really.

    Honestly, I would go for green bombs, my friend @lis. Green is always a safe choice for bombs.

    A lot of bombs had yellow bands or markings, Bernard (@lis). Practice bombs were usually painted in a color different than "real" bombs, but I don't really know about RAF practice bombs. I think I would stick with the color you have unless you can find a reason to change them.
