OK, I'm happy with the color!

Need another coat maybe, got some brown showing through. I mixed 4 parts Tamiya OD with 1 part Tamiya red brown. The preshade is...brown.

Not much but there's a start. I'm perplex about the floor. Instructions call for both Irish Linen and Aluminum. Right now it's aluminum.

Searching around what others have done for PC10 or PC12 I've seen every shade of brown and green out there so who's going to tell me I'm wrong?

Primer, tamiya black for preshade, then Nato Brown next layer, then a thin coat of Tamiya Olive Drab. FX 62.

What you see on the far right is just the xf62 over primer and preshade. From the wingtip to about the mid section is the brown backed basecoat.
After some clear coats and weathering, protecting the rib tap I think this will work.
I think this looks excellent 👌
 
Are you sure you want the ribs lighter? No light can get through there, like it can especially when the lower surfaces are only clear dope. I suppose it can depend on the lighting.
