Awesome shots Zac. Im still trying to find a decent interior green paint, the tamiya one I got didnt come out the colour it showed on the tin! Too dark. I'll mix it with some white to lighten it up abit.

I use XF-71 Cockpit Green (IJN), works nicely for me in 1:72, is darker than the tin says but looks good!

Nah, sadly I didn't take any shots as I felt the dorsal fillet looked rather nasty! It looks right if there's a turbine up front, but otherwise not so much. When EGK comes back to us I'll get a photo or two and post them  |

I find that for Fletcher interior green, the best way to get that depth and worn look is to paint zinc chromate and then American cockpit green. I got some Gunze 3 pack of interior colours and this has been nearly perfect (well for my BOF anyway).
I am an enamel fan though...

Thanks for the info Mike, I'll look into that with the zinc cromate. Gunze are excellent paints, The one I have used is the same one as you do Zac - XF-71, I definetely need to lighten after seeing these pics youve put up! But then again Ive seen some fletchers in a light grey inside, But the green looks better though and provides a nice canopy tint

The green sure is nicer, and as they go through intensive service the Crescos are all having their green replaced by grey.
