> Jim,

> Not sure what you mean by 'modern blue/green' ???

> All the 'modern' Russian a/c I have seen have a pale blue/grey***pit interior - Su-27, MiG-29, Su-25, Tu-160 etc.

> I use the German underside colour - Helblau - with a touch of grey added for this.

> See the real things at :- (Su-27's)  http://www.FoundCollection.com/;or
> (Su-25)  http://www.FoundCollection.com/(Tu-160)  http://www.FoundCollection.com/

> If you mean the earlier bright turquoise/green colour as seen on the MiG-31/25/27/23/21 then there are a couple of companies
> that do a matching colour. I use an old bottle from a company called 'Red Paint' - unfortunately no longer available.

> No doubt other posters will help here.......
