Hataka Hobby HTK-CS102 “RAF Bomber Command ” (paint set 8 x 17ml)

ORANGE LINE - LAQUER OPTIMISED FOR AIRBRUSH
The ORANGE LINE was developed to guarantee superior paint performance and access to unmatched range of colours to those modellers, who do not use acrylic water based paints.

Standard colours of RAF bomber force during WW2

Starting from 1939 majority of RAF Bomber Command aircraft wore a version of Temperate Land Scheme with either Sky „Type S” (light bombers, mid-1940 to mid-1942) or Night (heavy bombers, 1939 till mid-1942) undersides. Unlike the Fighter Command, which after 1941 switched to more offensive camouflage, the Bomber Command stuck to original „sand and spinach” livery – Day Bomber and Night Bomber Schemes after July 1942 again featured DE + DG / Sky or Night respectively. The only exception was De Havilland Mosquito bombers, most of which left the factory in overall Medium Sea Grey with Dark Green camouflage on upper surfaces only (a consequence of multiple versions being assembled on the same production lines).

Contains the following colours (lacquer based paints, optimised for use with airbrush):

• HTK-C009 – Dark Earth – Used throughout WW2 on upper surfaces of majority of RAF bombers in Temperate Land Scheme
• HTK-C016 – Dark Green – Used throughout WW2 on upper surfaces of majority of RAF bombers in Temperate Land Scheme

• HTK-C034 – Medium Sea Grey – Standard base colour of Mosquito bombers since mid-1942, camouflaged with DG on upper surfaces
• HTK-C025 – Interior Grey-Green – Standard colour of cockpit interiors and wheel wells of RAF Bomber Command aircraft throughout WW2
• HTK-C175 – Red Dope (Red Primer) – The best match for the red protective dope used on fabric sections of RAF bombers (visible on interiors)
• HTK-C326 – BS Mid Bronze Green – Equivalent to wartime BS Mid Bronze (BS381:1931:23), basic RAF bomb colour from late 1940 till 1964
