I'm just about to start painting up my Navwar 1/3000 Chinese fleets (thinking about a Sino-Japanese War campaign for next year). Any thoughts on appropriate colour schemes?

Mine are all black hull, white upperworks and ochre funnels, like the pre-1902 British.

I donīt remember where, but somewhere I read in wartime the white upperworks and funnels were painted gray, which seems suitable.

Ta for that. Black, white and yellow sounds good.

Texas' comments are correct based upon Model Companies interpretations
