Slater Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 I have this particular kit on order. The hull appears to be a two-tone affair, so before it arrives what would be the correct colours for this application? http:// Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armored76 Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 Hey, The Revell website lists the Revell colours: https://www.revell.de/en/products/modelmaking/ships/submarines/german-submarine-type-xxi.html?listtype=search&searchparam=xxi You can use colour converter websites from here if needed. The two grey tones seem to be 57 Grey and 78 Tank Grey. Very descriptive names Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Timmy Posted July 31, 2022 Share Posted July 31, 2022 (edited) I don't recall what color Grey I painted the upper hull, but I painted the lower hull Anthricite Grey. You can also use Gunmetal Grey on the lower hull. Don't forget the bootstripe line between the two colors along the waterline. It's something like three or four feet tall, and I used gloss Black then weathered it to flat Black. https://i.postimg.cc/JhQLCTCb/DSCF0015.jpg ( please excuse the dust all over it. It's been in storage for a few years, and the cats have been batting it around a bit. ) Edited July 31, 2022 by Little Timmy Photo evidence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
