I am a simple man; I like what I see :)

That’s some neat weathering.

Keep posting updates so I can continue my drooling :D

On my computer the ship looks dark blue and the boats look a very light gray. This is why the question was asked.

Sorry but I'm confused, are you planning to build the Arizona in #5 standard navy gray? Like the boats?

Hi John,

I have changed my camera to iPhone 12 and I still didn’t catch a grip on settings. This photo is a bit overexposed… Colors are the same as the rest of the ship - navy blue with a tint of grey.

I didn’t see a difference in colours of Arizona and ships on deck. Am I wrong?

Hello Everyone,

It is hard to believe that I have posted last update of this thread in April, last year... But now I am back and I have a strong will to finish my Arizona! :thumbs_up_1:

I haven't got much to show You but some work have been done. I have finished all of supporting boats. I know this could be done bettter but for now it has got to be like that.

Thanks Greg,

I have copied the effect at the rest of the deck. I didn't want to make it too dark as I see at pictures of Arizona that even when She is worn on the hull, still fresh and brushed on the deck. I left only the differentiation in color of single boards.

Hi Wojtek. I like the deck with the oil effects applied. I think it is a better fit with the condition of the weathered hull. Beautiful work so far. :thumbs_up_1:

I have started to work on the deck. As Mk1 wooden deck is rather dull and lacks details in colour variation I have tried to make it more interesting with the use of oils. I've done this for the first time and I am not sure did I do this ok. Can anyone comment on this?

Here are some pictures. I have put oils on upper deck, lower deck is not painted.

And here is the final look of the hull. Now I will wait 48h for oil paints to set and dry. Next - matt varnish.

No, Navy Blue. It is some kind of blueish grey.

I was trying to fix some light issues as I found colours on previous photos too dull. This is better:

So, I have highlighted the upper part of the hull with my mix (Navy Blue + Intermediate Blue + Flat White) and finished this stage. Tomorrow I will put the varnish and will go to chipping and weathering.

Thank You Martin! :thumbs_up_1:

I have painted the upper part of the hull. I have just one problem with the colour... I have used Navy Blue and highlighted it with a mix (Navy Blue + Intermediate Blue + Flat White) but I think it is just a bit too dark. It will get even darker after varnishing and weathering... What do You think?

Thank You Dan!

Some more progress on painting the hull.

Bottom part was painted primarly with Hull Red, then I have highlighted it with highly diluted two layers of Dull Red and Flat Red. Finally, waterline and the rest was painted with black primer.
