Following this thread with interest as I have a long-term project modeling M2 in 1:350 scale using the Mikro Mir kit converted using 3D printing and custom etched brass--at least, that's the plan.

I was wondering the same thing. The Mikro-Mir instructions show this:

They indicate Ocean Gray for the lighter color and dark gray-green for the darker color, and a dark gray lower hull. Wondering what a good paint match for the gray-green would be?

Hi all !
I've been looking for some time for good drawings/pics of british airplane carier M2 submarine, but with no results. I'd like to build it in 1:72, with Parnal Peto on catapult, but i have no good drawings of coning tower, and wiew from above ( deck and superstructure details).
I hawe all I need for airplane ( I've start to build it recently) but no luck with sub.
Any help will be very appreciate,
TIA
