Another happy "deck ape"! Thanks much. Found the paint at a shop too. It's already ordered and on the way!

It's been more-or-less decided by some of us here (like Carr, ...
Carr?! Who made this guy king of the paint? I know this guy and he's no Dave Wooley! I wouldn't listen to him!

That makes it easier - WEM does have Northern Fleet Grey: https://www.whiteensignmodels.com/p/Rus ... M+11/4419/

Hi All:

Looking for something that would be a close match to "Northern Fleet gray". Any and all help excepted...

Thanks

It's been more-or-less decided by some of us here (like Carr, who's doing a marvelous job on the Trumpeter 350th Kirov) that the shades of grey used by the Russians vary so much (through time and between individual ships) that it is nearly impossible to pick out one shade and say "this is the one, use it."

But then, WEM does have Russian Navy colours, but I don't know whether they work for your ship at your preferred time period.

Hello all:

Have not been in here in ages, but the ship model bug has bitten hard! I am about to do a Slava class but I need to know the colors. Have the deck red orange but need the rest. Need the grays mostly. If there are colors that correspond to Model Master FS colors? All the better, as those are readily available to me. Any and all help accepted...

Thanks
