1978 era RN anti-ship missile colour query

[Captain Canada]

I was thinking all white....with some wee pale roundels. Then I thought EDSG ?

It's a 48th scale Standard missile, with the tailplane from a 72nd scale -104, and turbojets made from 72nd scale Torpedoes. Going to hang centreline on my TSR.2, as a long range ASM. Opinions on colour and markings appreciated !

for late 70's I'd go for EDSG if the launch aircraft is FAA, or Dk Grn if your TSR2 is RAF. Lots of NATO standard warning stencils and coloured bands: (Yellow for warhead, Brown for powerplant, Black for section breaks.). I'd nix the roundels though, just wouldn't look right IMHO.....

.....but hey it's your model, Toad !

Yeah, what Ian said.  Glossy green, coloured bands, no roundels.

Looks cool btw Todd.

Allright boys...that's good enough for me !

EDSG, no roundels, and lots of bands and stencils.

Thanks !
