Hmmm, sounds like painting a model to match the NASA guy’s recollection of finishes would be very tough. Maybe easier to paint the model, and then Photoshop the data packet images.
JUST KIDDING! The last thing I want is a ton of hate mail. I know true competitors take this stuff seriously. For my Saturn V build, I’m using gloss paints, and model will get a gloss clear coatafter decals, then a final matte clear coat.
