Thanks mustang.
1st coat on the deck but need to add another darker coat. I used a darker paint but not sure why it came out so light :hmm:
No problem, easy fix, then on to some touch up.

Nice! That is a plus for ship building.....haze gray and underway. Lots of other fiddley stuff, though. Really like your ship building.

Thanks Lyle, it's one of my firsts......just kidding :giggles:
I'm disappointed with the deck color but like I said, it's an easy fix. the only thing I can think of is I grabbed the wrong bottle. :whistle:

What gray did you use for the decks, and how are applying it?

Vallejo with airbrush,
I want to say neural grey for the deck and light sea grey for the super.

I think a lot of my problem is the lighting.
Anyway, onward and upward. Next is touch up the deck fittings, life-raft canisters. CIWS, etc.

After working her most of the evening, I completed all I wanted to do and am waiting for the Solv-a-Set to finish it's work. Next will be the rigging, anchor chain, waterbase, weathering and crew.
