Would anybody know what the closest Pantone color would be? I have lots of pics but lighting plays a key factor.
Hay lee thank you very much for your help, It is so hard to tell what color it is , i have not seen in it in person.ralphee said:
Thanks
Again
Mark
Best advice i can give Mark is to buy a can, shoot it, and see what you think, maybe even photograph it too, but its the closest we have to " imperial blue" unless you go down the specialist route of RAL codes etc like the eFX team.
Lee
Which is Haze grey like i said Mark

Its really good Mark, in the flesh, it looks super, and in no way, too blue!propcollector said:

Isn't it painted the same shade as the regular ANH TIE's?
Gene
The Tamiya Haze Grey is great because you can make it look like many shades under different lighting. That's the impression I got from Gene's photos of the real thing. I just wish it was flatter. The Haze Grey is more of a satin w some shine, but with a light coat of flat primer underneath it might not need a dull coat after.
Gene, I don't suppose you're in the paint chip buisness at the moment?
They were all the same color .....the lighting was what throws off the true color!GKvfx said:
