1st coat, undercoat of Hellblau. Underside of the wingtips will be Deep Yellow.

After the masking of the Dunkelgrun, Graugrun is added. I expect two coats of the Graugrun, then to go back and second coat the Dunkelgrun.
I'm following the paint guidelines, but this is a grayer set of splinter colors than those done on the Stuka, which was greener, with Dunkelgrun and Swartzgrun combo. Marine colors?

Hi Kelly! Do you know what RLM coloures you should apply by the instructions? It looks as there is a Standard RLM scheme to apply. There where special maritime coloures but not on a He 115, as far as i know. Here it looks as you should paint it in RLM 65 ( underside ) and 70/71 on the upper fuselage... But I'm not an expert!
Your work looks great so far, especially on such an old kit!😢

I like it. I did use what MM calls its 'Graungrun', which is a gray-green that's greyer then the dark green that is 'Swartzgrun', instead of mixing a gray with a smidgeon of light olive, like the instructions suggested. (I think the instructions were meant for another paint line - Humbrol - and and earlier era. I used MM 'Hellblau' for the underside, with 'Deep Yellow' for the underside wingtips. I get the impression that MM has really tried to hew to the RLM colorchips. Once treated with Future, and then Dullcote, they look exceedingly similar, so I don't really think it matters.
I've recently Future-coated it in preparation for decals. It looks really odd that way...like it has been 'shrinkwrapped' in plastic.

Now _with_ decals. Still sporting that 'shrinkwrapped look' thanks to the Future coat. But once I coat over the decals and then Dullcoat the lot (sans clear bits, of course), I can then add it to the 'completed' list.
I had no idea it was an 'old' kit...I bought it because it was a 're-release' with lots of hoopla, clear back in July 2012. I bought it because I have a 'seaplane thing'.

Wow! That was a quick build! Maybe I should send you mine so that you can build it for me!

Really? I probably don't detail as much, I'm still pretty much a novice.
