Hi
I`m building an old 1/48 Lindberg Grumman TBF Avenger. The instructions suggest upper surfaces Insignia blue fs 35044 this cross references to humbrol 189, which appears to be discontiued, can anybody suggest an alternative colour in humbrol or revell paints. It does`nt have to be spot on. thanks in advance Ken
google up the humbrol cross reference chart. i don't have the url.

Testors Model Master Acryl Insignia Blue FS 35044 #4742
The instructions are wrong. For TBF you want FS 35042, which is available in most paint lines (Modelmaster, Humbrol, Xtracolor. etc).
Testors calls FS35042 'Flat Sea Blue' (enamel) and is available in their Model Master FS Colors line #B1718
