I echo Wayne's post above. Of course the "Aussie from down under" has to be replaced with a Pole from Poland.

Hope your dad feels better!

And replace the Aussie from down under, and the Pole from Poland, with a Geordie in Cheshire, who is a nutter !

Best of luck to your dad!

I according see in vallejo equivalencies is that modelcolor have colors as direct and modelair no references, but as I happened to me with the typhoon aussies color Gunze H71 is not very good example of color, a color that would be similar is yellow German tanks of WWII.

here you have the new list of references vallejo 2015

ok so given i am spending most of my free time at the hospital visiting dad at the mo the beau fighter rescue mission is going slowly .

I got a set of aftermarket details from flea bay for about 1/4 of what tamiya wanted to replace the fubar oem ones but it will require a bit of a rethink …

Beaufighter Mk.VIF V8388 (6-Y), two sorties flown F/L Josef Hanush in May 1943, 600Sqn, Algeria

SO it will be getting a green sea grey make over… mostly not in time for the GB deadline though…

I will try and get the BF109 done as a priority as thats closer to the finish line/ smaller
