This is the USS Ranger 1/350 scale aircraft carrier assembled and painted by Andy of Andy's Hobby Headquarters in Glendale, AZ using Tru-Color Paint for the hull (both the anti-fouling red and all the camouflage colors, the propeller, small aircraft and the deck color.

Note that Andy also used the Tru-Color Paint masking paper for the entire project.

Among the paints used were TCP-1000 Anti-Fouling Red, TCP-1003 5-H Haze Gray, TCP-1007 5-N Navy Blue, TCP-1010 Deck Blue 20-B, TCP-1012 5-P Pale Gray, TCP-1014 Polished Bronze, TCP-1006 5-O Ocean Gray and TCP-1231 ANA-623 Glossy Deep Blue-Black. All of these paints are available in 30ml (1 oz.) and 60 ml (2 oz.) bottles. Our Masking Paper is available in 3 and 10 packs 8" x 10" in size.
