Pretty Mediocre Modeller Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I think a Horsa would probably be Humbrol 78 British Interior Green, which is a slightly greyer green than the American Interior Green (Humbrol 226), which is more yellow hued. American aircraft in British service would have been left in the American green inside. There are other variations of the interior green, such as the Grumman interior green, which was a more bronze green colour. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lighting was not great but, if you zoom in, it looks interior green to me 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
