i would still use a primer and go with Admiralty paints, just as they are as true to the real thing as possible (subject to the Pink HMS Victory) admiralty paints - Bing images

problems aside, i think you have made a stunning job of this, well done
-
if i was brave enough i would love to re-rig my Victory

oh very nice

good afternoon well i put in the three lines, replacing the two that i had in position, but not fitted, these are white, and although not confirmed i believe these are steel on the real vessel, but i am constantly moving away from the kit, lol nothing seams to be in the right place,
