sskunky Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Hi Guys, I am in need of some Testors Ford Engine Blue for my Trooper stripes and some cans of Ford Mustang Wimbledon white for the lid and armor. The thing is I live in the UK and I cannot get it here or at least I can't find any. Is there anyone here that could get some form the US and post it to me? I will obviously pay for all postage, paint and time . Please let me know if any of you can help me out. Thanks in advance. Mark......... p.s Moderators, sorry if this is in the wrong place.

JoeR Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Use humbrol # 14 french blue for the tube stripes Humbrol was used on the originals too! Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmian Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Use humbrol # 14 french blue for the tube stripes I've read other people using #48 Mediterranean Blue for the stripes. I'm pretty sure #5 Dark Admiral Grey and #15 Midnight Blue are used for the AB buttons, the teeth and the ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also i think the #15 midnight blue is too dark, so i also use the #14 french blue for my ab buttons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
