For those interested in presenting HMS Victory in the new colours as she was in 1805 These are my thoughts.

I am currently building the cross section and wanted to use new colours, so after a lot of research and some trip and error this is what I have settled with

yellow ochre - Revell Aqua color Afric Brown 17
Black wood - Revell Aqua color Granit Grey 69
Red Ochre - Humbrol signee Red 174
Masts above upper deck - Humbrol Oak 71

hope to show some pictures soon when all the colours have been used
