Hi
I've done my Trumpeter 1/72 Sea Fury now except for the rockets. I can't see anywhere in the instructions as to what colour to paint them. Any ideas?
cheers Mike

Hi Michael

Dark Green is probably a reasonable bet. That's the colour of the wartime RAF 60 lb rockets - the pic here is of the one at Hendon - and Classic Airframes also state Dark Green for the rockets in their Wyvern.



Hope this helps
