Hi Stephen and Jamo,

The colours are 5 Colour and are actual depictions of the colours cited on our colour chart for 5 Colour Painted Scheme. They are TONED to suit 1/72nd and are lightened so that you can see the actual colours. Stand 6 feet away from the wing Stephen and you can see the colours really take on individual hues. Exactly like the real thing. The Mauve really stands out particularly well as does the Prussian Blue and Midnight Blue/Black. All in scale.

By the way, you'll have company with the Staaken build Stephen; Helmut in Germany and David in Geneva and Tom in Western Australia and I are all building our Staakens and will post photos on-line. This is truly an International Group Build!

Whoever else wants to get in, step up to the plate now!

Because it's Staaken Time Ladies and Gentlemen!

As we say around the shop here; "It's too SLICK!"

Cheers

Derry
