Glad to read all of your constructive information, taking both sides of the view, but back to why I started this thread...My 1/48 scale model of F.I 103/17! Well just mixed up a new batch of linen, I used about 50% white, 35% Fulcrum grey, 10% Armor Sand and about 5% radome tan. The finished color looks biege with a greyish tint to it, much lighter than my previous photo. Only problem is the weather turned cool today and since I must paint outside got an eggshell finish on my first coat. Will have to sand it smooth and spray another coat tomorrow, but the color looks good to me.
