Paul Jarman Posted July 15, 2017 #3 Posted July 15, 2017 Hi Don, I am building the 1/84 kit of this ship. As Kevin says lots of good pics with a google search. If you have the same poster that came with mine the colour scheme has a white bottomed hull. I believe at one time this was correct, but she now has a black hull with two white strips which are representative of what would have been the cannon bands where she a war ship. The instructions i have say to paint the top band gold, but it is actually yellow ochre. This paint scheme IE: white, black and yellow ochre seems to be prevalent through most of the ship with a lot of brass showing.
