Stick with the colours as they are.

I think he looks fine as he is, perhaps adding green would take away the night attack element ?
YES! YOU GET IT!
cheers andy, didnt see this until after i posted!
i bet im the only person on here who would take a RED boat & repaint it a different colour!
You see, now I read the heading and see he's night attack I 100% agree - he's perfect. Very stealth!

Ross that is top notch, he looks the part of a night attack troop. Well done chief. Love all your custom work, wish I had the ideas to do what you and the rest of the customisers do. I'll stick to my model planes, it's easier.
PS your F-104 rocks.

Humbrol do a metal cote range that you can polish up when it's dry. I use it for some of the engines on my models. Like most Humbrols it needs it needs a lots of mixing. Got some Humbrol acrylics the other week thinking they would be similar to Tamiya but they are just like the enamels. Very disappointing.
