Hi all - I recently purchased plans from Plane Bricks for its new B-17. It’s made in light bluish grey along with yellow accent markings. After watching the brilliant “Masters of the Air” Apple TV series, I want to build it in metallic silver or olive green. Do you know of a simple way to recolor any visible parts to the original colors en masse (realizing that all of the pieces might not even be available in those colors). I tried uploading a wanted list in Bricklink then moving it into Rebrickable where you can swap colors (if you have a pro subscription) on MOCs you have purchased. But this is not a purchased MOC from Rebrickable so that function does not work. Any suggestions on how to do this? It could be a very manual process and it’s also difficult to determine which parts are even visible in the MOC without building it first. Thanks, Jonathan
