Light Gray, Gray, Zinc Chromate Green, White, Red. Gloss Black, Brown, Aluminum, Blue, Yellow, Wood, Gunmetal, Olive Drab, Silver, Light Green, Dark Green, Brass, Tan, Flesh. As much as possible I prefer to use Model Masters Enamel. I hope you enjoy working on this model as much as I did. By the way, while there are a number of different paints for the B17G, there will be plenty paint for other airplane model kits. In the long run, as I order new model kits, I find I only to buy a few new ones because I have most of the other colors on hand. Enjoy! Rev Sam

The ones listed on the box are:gun metal, olive drab, natural wood, medium gray, light green, flat black, light gray, chromate green, red, blue, aluminum, flat brown, satin black, brass, tan zinc chromate, flat white, flat dark green, yellow. I didn't use all those though, since a lot are inside and you can't even see them. The ones I used were:gun metal, olive drab, flat white, flat black, green, red, brass, aluminum, and flat grey. It turned out really well, and I don't think the exact colors make much of a difference. Good luck!

you can use any paint. but it suggests gun metal, grey, green, natural wood, olive drab, brass, tan, and yellow. I would also recomend some yellow and blue.

It comes with 3 different colors, it is pretty thick paint, but you could probably use about any kind that is not too thin as it will spread very easily. Make sure you keep the squeeze bottles that some with it to refill.

If this is your first model, you will need a sharp razor type knife and model cement. if you want to paint it as well, you'll need model paints. The model comes in grey. I know Michaels has most of what you need. So does Hobby Lobby. Fit each piece together in each step Before gluing together, incase you need to make any adjustments. Once it's glued, your screwed. lol

You need a program to draw and color. But that can be something as simple as paint or complex as Photoshop. So unless the program you use only allows for black and white the you should be fine

ScotNo red required. Standard Black, White, and Ground are all you need.Elmer.

No, this model does not include paint nor glue. For best results I recommend buying the following paint colors: copper, black, white, tan, brown and gun metal.

No paint touch up kit was included.Any black flat paint would work - something like rust - o - leum might be best.

You would need to use a metal primer first, but yes this could be spray painted a different color and still look good. I would assume you would need several coats of the new color.

Yes, you do need to mix the paints to get the colors needed, but the instructions help you with this task. The colors are lettered to guide the painter on which ones to put together. The numbers are average size.

Any oil based paints, primers or stains must be thinned. Your manufacturer or paint supplier can give you the specs. Hope this helps.

Did mine over a year ago, let me see......used spray copper paint for the haul, bottled paint used white, black, the instructions will tell you other colors you will need. One thing I did on my own, I had a dark wood stain, I used it on the deck. Let it dry and sprayed it with a poly spray to keep it from smearing. I know wood stain is for wood, but it will give it a great look. One thing take your time with the ship, work a few hours at a time. May get frustrated at times, but worth it at the end. Any other questions just ask.

No, the latest version comes in white with some clear parts. Everything will need to be painted. There are decals that can be used to cover the model, but they work best over a painted surface.

No they do not. You will have to build it. It comes In a gray color, but you can paint it if you don't like the preset color scheme

in order to get the model looking authentic, there is some painting involved. The instruction booklet tells you what paint colors are required. It's very easy and don't need much experience to make to look good.

Any normal model glue, such as Testors or Tamaiya, should be fine. You could either paint it with either enamel or acrylic model/hobby paints. (I think acrylic gives a better look for something like this, but that's just personal preference.) Colors can either be those suggested (can't recall if it lists colors on the box or only in the instructions, which I don't have on hand) or you could look at photos or paintings of Viking craft and see if there's an alternate paint scheme that is more appealing. Hope that helps--and hope the person getting this has fun with it!

Nothing special is needed...Prior to painting my wall with 3D projector paint (i purchased on eBay--around $60), i was just watching it on a plain white wall and was pleased, but once you get the paint you can truly appreciate the picture...
