RGB color for metal surface
I own some models from Kranich and Variant of the former GDR. The Kranich ones were printed in 1/50 on metal foil and can be scanned with some preparation to avoid reflection of the foil. The Variant ones are film negatives. They can be scanned and may be re-arranged to any size. I work with CorelDraw to rescale and adjust the lines, which is no more a problem. But ...
... I haven't found yet the appropriate RGB color for bare metal surfaces. Does anybody have suggestions? I attach an image of one of the models, where I filled the respective parts with 40% gray. From my point of view it is to dark but I found no better solution than e.g. 30, 35 or 40% gray.
