There is also another way to go with your paints. You can add a drop or two of Black or Yellow paint to the silver and paint the areas you want to have a slightly different metallic look. Years ago, this was a technique I learned when applying bare metal foil on aircraft models. We would thin down one or two drops of gloss Black to the point it was a slightly dark clear thinner then airbrush a Bare Metal sheet to get the effect. It is somethng you need to experiment with to get it right. When I worked real aircraft in the USAF, I found that many of the aluminum sheets used to repair the aircraft can have slightly different textures and colors, depending on the metal manufacturer and if it has a corrosion preventative applied to it. Pure aluminum will form a thin layer of oxide that keeps it from corroding and will give it a slightly dull but shiny appearance. Some aluminum sheeting the Sheet Metal shop would get would be shiny but one sheet would have like a very slightly darker tint to it. Other sheets would have that slightly yellow tint to it. The variance to them was so slight you needed to have one sheet next to the other in the sunlight to really see it. FYI, some of the more modern military aircraft, like the A-10 will have on the wings, a clear Leading Edge Tape applied. This was done to keep the paint from excessive wear and stripping back over the wings. You can get that same look on a model with some dull Scotch Tape.
