Hi, I'm currently painting my Tamiya Mosquito Mk IV. The instructions aren't very clear on what colour the spinners should be. I'm doing the DK333.
As a side question, I'm using Humbrol 106 and 163 for the camouflage. What Tamiya or Model masters colour do you use ??
Thanks for any help.

Hi mossieramm,

All the reference I have found show DK333 with night/black spinners, the same colour as the underside.

I agree that the camo diagram in the kit could be confusing as the spinners are a different shade of grey in the pics.

Other sources also state black, so thats what I'll do.
Thanks.
