I'm looking to repaint my MP Starscream a colour that better reflects the real jet.
...Which colours do you think would be best to use and how do you think the colour scheme should should be with regards to the different sections?

That all depends. Are you going for Starscream’s real colors or real F-15 colors? If you’re looking for real F-15 colors, that varies depending upon unit and nation of the jet. Some are painted in camo patters (mostly desert camo), others are sky grey, whle others, namely those once used by the Thunderbirds (yes, they once used F-15s for a while before moving to the F-16) are painted red, white, and blue. It is this last colorscheme that Starscream’s original G1 colors are taken from, though the pattern is not the same.

Gunship grey is probably the best choice. I believe that's what most of the newer F-15s have getting painted. I think that's also the color that Kowamori specified, but somewhere along the line, green got introduced into the gray.
