Re: My first profile

I also use Hobbyvista as a reference when working on VVS schemes but keep this in mind: there are no absolutes as far as colours are concerned. So don't hesitate to make your grey a bit darker if you want people to consider it as grey and not white. Call it artistic license and historical honesty.

I've long since decided that when I work on a particular colour, I'll try to get it right, but won't go into long discussions and/or arguments with people about what it should be exactly. Generally, if I feel confident that it's relatively accurate, and if I like the colour, I stick with it.

One of the things I like on SPS is that people here seem to tacitly agree with that. You rarely get comments like "your colouring is wrong" or "that's not June 1937 Munich-plant RLM 78!".
