Title: OTS Acceptable French Horizon Blue?
Post by: rfindley on October 09, 2020, 04:46:55 AM

Would a USN Intermediate Blue work as an acceptable Horizon Blue for Guynemer's Ni.11 Le Vieux Charles?   And would it be appropriate for wing and control surfaces outlines?  TIA


No getting a reply I decided to go with Humbrol H89 Middle Blue which looks good to me.  Research more or less resulted in "no one really knows for sure."

No one wouild tell you for sure how was this blue dope because we have no evidence..
any light grey blue could be right.
search around horizon blue is only a logical choise, we don't know reallly...
