Jparsley Posted March 20, 2015 #1 Posted March 20, 2015 Hello allI am new to model building and I have the al us constellation I am wondering what the color scheme should be since all the historic pictures I can find are pencil drawings Any comments or color pictures would be welcome thank you Quote USF Constellation 1/85 AL Jparsley
JerryTodd Posted March 30, 2015 #2 Posted March 30, 2015 I assume you have the Artesia Latina kit which depicts the 1854 sloop of war being restored as a 1797 frigate. In that case, you might want to finish her as she appeared in Baltimore in those days... The gun strip was a sort-of cream color, not white.
