Yep Black on the wale then dull white on the hull below that, also the stem will be half black and white with a demarcation line level with the wale, and the lower transom will be white level with the lower hull, and either red ocre or french blue where the head of the rudder enter's the hull.

Old Collingwood Posted January 7, 2018 Author #249 Posted January 7, 2018 Hi folks, I have painted the lower hull on the one side flat white, I have put a couple of coats on her but she needs a little bit of very light sanding and a few more coats, then a little bit of re touch up of the wale. I wont put any pics up yet till she looks a little more tidy.

Old Collingwood Posted January 14, 2018 Author #257 Posted January 14, 2018 Evening folks, I have spent a good couple of days finishing off the hull paintwork - I painted the other lower hull side, then applied the white/black lower transom relief area, and also did some tidy-up work on the wale, last I applied the top black on the stem. So appart from a few tiny adjustments and working on the hull/top bulkhead rails and some decoration, the hull is nearly comlete (on the outside). Oh - and the rudder and the stem frame work/figurehead/ anchor howser framework, etc etc. OC.

Ferit Posted January 15, 2018 #267 Posted January 15, 2018 Fine work on the painting after a fine work on the planking the hull... IMO although painting the ship makes her accurate, nice and more attractive, it is a bit sad because it closes the all wood workmanship. A contradiction?
