Hi. my name is Andrew George and I am a firefighter with the Royal Australian Air Force, stationed at Townsville, North Queensland. I also make model planes as a hobby and was wondering if any of you could help me. I am building a 1/48 scale A-10A Thunderbolt that was stationed at England AFB about the late 80's / early 90's, belonging to 76 TFS of 23 TFW. The model kit is produced by Tamiya and the colour chart is not very clear. I am after the FS numbers that correspond to the paint colour for the camouflage, the pattern I want to paint is the lizard pattern, i.e the grey / green colours. These are not listed on the plans, as the colours correspond to paint made by Tamiya. I have written to the company, but they take their time replying to questions, so I was wondering if any of you knew anyone that painted aircraft, or if you can point me in the right direction. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thankyou.

that info has been posted here before but I dont know where, use the search at the top of the page, and poke around a little. Focus your search on the "Hog chatt" area and you'll probly find it faster. Many modelers here including my own darn self <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> Civies (me again) are relatively welcome here, so stick around.
