 Dalek Colour-Matching (RePost)

(With thanks to Kevin - Kyrephex - for the Topic Compilation)

Color Stuart says:
[in looking for a color match to the orginal light blue used
for perspex eye disks] The first is Dulux Venetian Crystal 6,
which B & Q can mix up on request. Of all the shades of blue
that B & Q can mix to order this is the closest.
The second candidate is Dulux 'Blue Babe'. This is off the
shelf paint and seems to be the closest of ANY paint to the
powder blue perspex that I have.


Color John (salacious snail) says:
The potted history that comes with the Sevans kit mentions
that the original hemis were laid up in fibreglass using
'lagoon blue' pigment (if I remember correctly). Plasticote
do a colour called 'blue lagoon' which is what I used for my
hemis. Like Periwinkle, it's too light for the later daleks,
but it's not bad for the early ones.


Color Mark D says:
IMHO, I do think that Plasticotes "Periwinkle" blue looks
pretty darn amazing against Silver, and looks great when
working on a Mk 1. For later 60's builds, Periwinkle is far
too light in colour though.

Color Julian/Fozzy says:Rhodium Silver is the colour listed as
being used on the first series Daleks, but to be very honest
comparing it to the photographs of the studio props reveals
that they are not quite the same colour as the modern version
of Rhodium Silver.....

I suspect that Jaguar have kept the name but that since the
1960's the paint formulation will have changed significantly.
This will mostly be due to modern metalic particles being
different as well as the suspending material being different.
Without an actual paint sample match from an original Dalek
it's probably the closest you're going to get to the correct
colour.

The other colour listed is the Jaguar Light Blue.... That's
also on that paint chart....



Color some member's have suggested using Woolworth's silver and
gold CoverPlus spray paint


Color one possible modern paint clor for hemispheres as seen in The
Daleks would be in Holts Duplicolour range - LF74 Ford
Olympic Blue


Color Dave/Red_dalek has suggested color schemes on his website -

Hi there,

Can I ask if anyone has any bright ideas for matching Halfords car paint aerosols to the hemi blue of Chase/Masterplan - or what the latest received wisdom on the subject is?

I've seen Ford Olympic Blue quoted for The Daleks/Invasion and Ford Blaze Blue for Power/Evil, but what about the blue in between?

Any comments or directions to relevant info greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Paul
