Roland C.ii colour?

[Marco]

Hi!

I started building Eduard´s Roland C.ii. The instructions say to paint it gray. Is that correct?

I´ll be building the whale/fishscale version.


Second colour question: should I paint the interior wood colour?

Thank you!

here's a wonderful color drawing by Will Boucher of the C.II.. it is Grey in over all color..


 here's another drawing from Will of the C.II in a light Blue overall color scheme


Both have the "whale face" on them.. so you'd have to reference the decals to the picture to decide which paint job you'll do..

Thank you Flyjunkie, but its this one I want:

here's a few pictures of that Eduard Roland you are building.. in the first photo we see that really light Blue:



here's another photo of the same Roland, now the Light blue looks grey...(probably from the lighting or photo editing me thinks..). 



I would follow Red Baron's advice about the light Blue..

might check out Misterkit Paint's "Gotha Bluish White".. that is really light blue...

Thank you Dean and Red Baron!

I´ll chose between Misterkit Gotha Daylight bomber blue and Vallejo´s 907 Pale Grey Blue. Got both here.
