Hi everyone, :-salut   

Here is my new project. This is Sopwith F.1 Camel.
The kit is a 1/48 scale model, and it is from Revell.

Hi friends this is my today progress :)!Because the original kit don't have sit-bells I am decided to make it.I use copper for sit-bells.I painted it in white.When I finished, I just paste the sit bells on the seat.

I removed rest of putty, and now plane is ready for painting.But there is the problem.My instructions says me that I must mix two colors to get one.I have Tamiyas colors, but I don't know which colors i should use(I saw many photos on the internet but I am not well-versed to estimate which colors I should use :-think).I would like that plane be very realistic. :))
 :-help Can someone help me, and tell me which Tamiyas color I should use, or show me how the original colors on the plane looks?  :-help

Here you are two digitalized chips of the PC 10 color. As you see different shades and possible one is fade out and another is pretty new shade. My guess is that it could be best to take Olive Drab as base as well it look closest to the fresh PC 10
