Quoted from flugs:

Salut,
Could you please list the exact references (numbers) of the painting you have used?
Thanks in advance

Hey flugs...

All the paints I used are Tamiya brand paints... I'm not sure about reference numbers but I know Tamiya uses specific names for their paints...

I used two sprays - Gunship Grey and Light Gun Grey. I also used bottle of mat black and a bottle of metal bronze and mix these two together to paint the exposed panels.

You could also use a third spray and if you do I would recommend a black metal to create a third tone but I would only use it very lightly on areas as the ship ends up quite dark even without using black on the main parts of the body. Maybe if you use the black metal then perhaps better to use the light gun metal as the main body colour instead of the Battleship Grey to brighten up the overall appearance.
