I sealed the dry clay base with a gloss varnish, then after drying laid down a basecoat...............
Hull is just dry fitted. I looked for a grey-green in my paint box for a base colour. I picked one out - Vallejo German Uniform!
The rest of the deckhouses etc have been detail painted before assembly, to ease access
The instructions show the assembly of the SOC Seagull floatplanes, but there are no colour call outs for them, or even where they are fitted - the boxtop only shows them in flight. Luckily one of the pictures taken in Iceland shows how they sit on the catapults
A bit more digging gives the colours as Blue-Grey over Light Grey.................
