The light blue shade Light Blue RLM 65 from the Hataka Orange Line range. The undersurface color of German aircraft from the prewar years and from the beginning of the Second World War.
Responsibility details are not available.
Light Blue RLM 65 is a light blue shade from the manufacturer Hataka from the Orange Line range, catalog code HTK-C029. The designation RLM 65 comes from the German regulation system of aviation colors and belongs to the undersurface color of aircraft from prewar times and from the first years of the war. On a model it suits places where the underside of the airframe is to be light and at the same time distinctly blue.
RLM 65 covered the undersurfaces of fighters, bombers and machines of naval aviation alike. On the upper surfaces a dark green pair belonged with it at that time, which later regulations replaced with lighter shades. In the course of the war the lighter RLM 76 came to the fore on the underside of a number of types, so RLM 65 remains the color of early machines and suits those best. The boundary between the blue of the underside and the upper surfaces runs along the sides of the fuselage and with early schemes tends to be sharp.
Stir the container thoroughly before use, as settled pigment will otherwise shift the resulting shade. The thinner meant for this range and the thinning ratio are given by the manufacturer on the packaging, so keep to its instructions. Light blue shades cover worse, so lay them over a light ground and rather in several weak layers than in one dense one. Let the surface set between layers and let the finished coat cure before masking tape comes onto it. Try the shade beforehand on a piece of scrap plastic; under artificial light a light blue looks different from in daylight, and on a large area the difference shows.
A model, thinner, brushes and an airbrush are not included in the supply, unless stated otherwise.
