WHat would the color of the interior be for Ki-100 "Tony"? I have an old ARII kit that I want to qickly build, but I am stumped for the interior color.

Hi Chip

A colour photo by Dan Patterson of the preserved Ki-100, in England, seems to show a brownish "interior green", but it's hard to know how much to trust the photo or the restoration.

The best place to check for Japanese colour refs is http://www.j-aircraft.com/

All the best

The box cover for the DML/Dragon 1/72 KI-61 Tony and the instructions show and call for the interior to be a yellow brown, similar to DAK Africa Brown---the early one used when Romell first landed in Libya.
