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
Stephen C.

Re: Modern Russian ship colors
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.
