Man, yeah, the box art for those MPC kits doesn't help much when it comes to paint-job guidance. They often show metallics, which are hard to pull off.
P.S. It looks like they put in a sheet of alternative fin patterns! Can you scan that in or take a picture?

Pretty sure I included the alternate fin patterns when I scanned my Flare Patriot. Check YORP.
