Actually, the instructions call for "light earth". Now THERE'S a vague term!

It's Pactra Light Earth. If you look up an FS30140 Testors has that shade of poo.

These may help.
They are from the Mike Dorffler CD set.

Great reference. Also nice to see where all that V2 metal working went to.

Great photos! I won't be painting this until I get back from Southern India sometime in April or May, so I have plenty of time to overthink and/or agonize over it. I have a rattle can of Testors Model Master 1954 Light Earth and the color looks right, but I surmise that it's flat and not gloss. What I'll do as a test is shoot a scrap BT with 2 coats of it, buff it with 0000 steel wool, and then do a decal test to see if they "silver". TBC

All fins are now attached and cross-braced until the adhesive cures. This was origianlly going to be a fin-only thread, but I'll keep it going to the end if there's continued interest. TBC

Nearly all the photos I have show it glossy not flat. Great for applying decals!
