                        Big Smile [:D]Looks good! I'm building the Chinese "knock-off" of this 1/72 Tamiya model. Ashamed [*^_^*]

                        What paint did you use for the hull below the water-line? What color was recommended by Tamiya?Question [?] Unfortunately, the Trumpeter subsidiary that distributed my kit does not provide that infoSad [:(]Dead [xx(].

                        Yes it's 1/72 scale. The light green on the hull was just mixed up until it looked about right, my kit was in Japanese only and didn't list a color.

                        Nicely build!

                        With regards to the lower hull color: as the kit is part of my 'still-to-build' stack, I had a look. Crosslinking the Japanese plans with the English plans reveal that they suggest mixing 1 part XF8 (Flat Blue) with 2 parts X5 (Green).

                        Cheers,
                        Jan Martin Wagenaar
