You could do a lot worse than give these a try.

I have Testors #2119 Russian interior. It is metallic blue color. Not sure if this correct.

What aircraft and what era?  Many Migs from the mid series Mig-21 to possibly early Mig-29 used the turquoise green color, but later Mig-29s used a grey color.  Many Sukhois used a gray color, but it varied between aircraft.

The time frame I am looking at is 1995. It is a Polish Mig 21.

As with almost every question about Russian colors, the answer is "it depends".  First, not all Soviet/Russian cockpits are that jade green color.  Sukhoi hasn't ever used it.

 

Second, there is no one correct color.  I've seen everything (with my own eyes, on real Soviet stuff) from a light powdery sky blue to a shocking, almost fluorescent, blue-green.

 

It depends on what aircraft type, what time period, etc, etc, etc.

The answer to every question in life is, "it depends."

 

LOL.

 

The more you know about anything, the more complicated it is giving a simple answer.

Have you tried this?  

 

Excellent paint and the color seems spot on to me.

Beside the MRP01 turquoise, MRP also have other colours for russian cockpits:

Mig 29 light blue MRP290

Mig 29 light grey MRP291

Older Migs 15-17-19 in light blue: MRP277
