Am going to paint up 4 of the above for home waters. Near as I can tell the sides would be lt grey/white with the decking grey. Anyone suggest other schemes? Thanks Joe

Joe Royal Navy Scheme E 1943 is what you want for Dog boats operating in Home Waters. Colours used were: G45 and white for vertical surface. B15 for horizontal surfaces. I'm not sure what your paint brand of choice is, but equivalent Vallejo Model Color codes are: G45 = 986 'Deck Tan' B15 = 964 "Field Blue". Hope that helps.

Thanks guys. Have seen pictures of the sharks mouths. Doesn't appear understated enough to be British! Joe
