as i have decided to double plankBigGrin
the top half of the hull in a lighter color than the bottom half i was going to make the Wale's the same dark color as the bottom half the problemConfused i have come up with is the lower wale being the same color as the lower hull will blend in with itCursing
i made the dividing line where the color changes on the hull 1 plank below the lower gun ports which works out about half way up the waleBlink
would it look stupid if i was to lower the color separation line 3 planks lower?
so as i can get the definition of the Wales to stand out
i just hope i have explained it well enoughLOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL
