Late War RN H Class DD as HMCS Chaudiere Colour Question

[George W]

Thanks 508Medway and Dick! This post is getting better all the time.

I have not painted the deck yet but I plan to mix my own to get closer to what has been discussed and pictured here. The green in semtex is not coming through in WEM paint drawings or photos but seems to be light brown. However I use a combination of Humbrol H72 and H148 for weathered teak and H72 has a slight greenish shade to it and may provide a starting point for mixing and matching to the photos here. I'm currently scratch building of the 20mm tubs and ultimately the 6 pounder positions and I will go back to painting when my head clears and I have developed a sense of direction.

These comments are becoming a very valuable resource, at least to me, and there seems to be other late WWII RCN A-I projects going.
Thanks again
George
