O.K. I need to get the following clear in my mind. This is for the Tamiya 1/350th Fletcher kit.
Can someone confirm the following:
MEASURE 12
===========
Vertical surfaces from boot-topping to level of main deck or highest sheer line, continuous for full length, Sea Blue 5-S.
Vertical surfaces above main deck level to level of the top of the highest superstructure masses, Ocean Gray 5-O.
Pole masts, yards, slender upper works above level of top superstructure masses, Haze Gray 5-H.
Horizontal surfaces, Wood Decks, and Canvas covers visible from outside the vessel, Deck Blue, 20-B.
MEASURE 12 Modified
====================
Vertical surfaces from boot-topping to level of main deck or highest sheer line, continuous for full length, Sea Blue 5-S.
Splotches, Haze Gray 5-H.
Vertical surfaces above main deck level to level of the top of the highest superstructure masses, Ocean Gray 5-O.
Splotches, Sea Blue 5-S.
Pole masts, yards, slender upper works above level of top superstructure masses, Haze Gray 5-H.
Splotches, Sea Blue, 5-S.
Horizontal surfaces, Wood Decks, and Canvas Covers visible from outside the vessel, Deck Blue, 20-B.
-----------------------------------
I arrived at this after reading Ships-2 and deducing that MEASURE 12 Modified is the same as MEASURE 12 with the added Splotches (the color of which is based on the instructions in Ships-2).
Correct?
Also, the lower hull would be painted Norfolk 65 Anti-fouling Red, and the Boot Topping painted Black.
Correct?
Thanks in advance,
James
