Indeed.
I'm just about to repaint the Eaglemoss Derelict and i'm umming and ahhing as to what colour the base coat should be. I don't want to go the metallic route it appears in a lot of the shots, far preferring the tan/grey that is seen in Giger's concept art and, indeed it looks to be in some behind the scenes shots.
So, question is - has anyone painted one in this scheme and, if so, what brand and shade makes for a good basis?
I can't say I've seen one painted up like the original paintings, it's mostly been the Alien movie zinc-plate color, so it would be something good and different to see.
You might want to start by getting a color chart of some kind. I work with an interior designer and there are paint color and Pantone color charts I have access to and are very helpful in choosing shades of a particular color group.
