Of course you mean 'cold' in the loosest sense possible, since black-and-white film doesn't reproduce color temperature as such. However, why go to the '30s? The evidence that blue doesn't go to white on ortho is in front of our eyes in every OT French, British, and American roundel and rudder flash you see. In this case, I do believe ortho does come to the rescue with respect to the Voss cowling. ("Consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.") One can reasonably expect that Voss' intention was to scare the pants off the Allied pilot when he saw that face in his rear-view mirror screaming up his "six." The way to insure that would be to have strong color contrast in the colors used. On ortho, there is no combination of hues that will yield the apparent, and logical, contrast seen in the Voss photos if the cowling is assumed to be yellow. > What's the address for Photopoint ?

Photos next week, and a good full-build review at Modeling Madness. But if you look close, it looks to some of us to be part of the "polishing" process. Not white, but a glare off of the NMF. If you have the Datafile, take a close look. I for one am *not* convinced of the grey theory. If you look at the pictures of it in the US Navy's hands while undergoing trials, the "glare" (i.e. "white") is not there because it's not in the sun. Overall NMF (minus the fabric areas) for me. Makes me want to pull out another Meikraft one...

And likeise the protective verdigris of copper oxidation However, putting these metallurgic digressions aside, TC's earlier "So non-buffed metallic finishes are the realistic ones, while the buffed ones are the kind you only see on a model shelf." is pure imperious Dicta Cleaver and current conventionalism that does not tolerate the fact that models represent not merely appearance but the essential or ideal nature of the things they represent. Thankfully, Allan Clark is one among many master modelers who have other ideas about what is appropriate in modeling. Of course, TC is the first to cry "Dicta Ira" when it suits his sense of "cool." In any event, for those committed to mimetic accuracy, I think there is no dearth of photographic evidence documenting highly buffed natural metal finishes from Sopwiths to Hawker Furys to Seversky P-35s to Century Series jets. These certainly provide the basis for putting a buffed bird on the modeling shelf as a representation of that airframe at some point in its life. On this, I'm with Dicta Ira, baby!
