ok; you have me convinced. Do you have a list of each color I need for the camo configuration and how much of each color I need to buy? Thank you for the help. Mark......1/35 Italeri

Are you modeling the 596 boat or is there another boat number you have in mind?

According to Dr. Ross PT-596 was painted with Measure 31/20P. From White Ensign Models paint I would suggest getting...

#2 Green
#3 Green
20-G Deck Green
Matt Black
Norfolk 65A Antifouling Red (for hull)

White Ensign Models web site:

How many to get of each? If it were me I'd get at least 3 tins of each. But I've been known to make mistakes. :-) Ed Cascia (a.k.a. Ducati650) has built this boat and can probably give you a more accurate estimate based on his experience.

I also highly recommend picking up Dr. Ross' supliment to this kit. There are some helpful hints on correcting this kit. You can get it for $25 plus shipping from his web site which is...

Good luck and let us know if you have other questions.
