Hi,

There were three choices of upper colours for U-boats -
Hellgrau 50 (light grey, MM1728)
Dunkelgrau 51 (medium grey despite the name, MM1721)
Schlickgrau 58 (medium to dark grey, don't know MM code for this one, sorry)

The lower colour was a dark grey antifouling paint -
Schiffsbodenfarbe III Grau (dark grey, MM2101)

Wooden deck was coated with a black wood preservative, not painted.

For more info see -

Enjoy your build,

Dougie

I'm sure this question has been asked before but I was wondering what  MM colors  you would use to  paint this BIG boatQuestion [?]. I plan on building it straight from the box. If this one turns out well then I'll go back to Hobby Lobby and pick another one up and do some modsSmile [:)] Thanks
