Thank you very much.

At the moment I am about 85% done with Richelieu post New York refit. I will present him first without the measure 32 camo, and than attenpt the camo. The gradiant transitions in the pattern have me stymied at the moment any advice is welcome.

David

I will be looking forward to see what you`ll come up with regarding the "gradient" camo.
I`ve run into the same problem with "Gneisenau" at the moment.

It seems that soft-edged camouflage paintjobs don`t translate well into SB-style...

Those camo paint jobs are tough sometimes...hope you don't run into the same problems with Tirpitz!

David,

I used the gradient function on paint.net to get the effects I had for the Richelieu. It's a free download and I've had a lot of success with it.

Exactly! I have paint.net and was playing around with the gradient function and that is the only way I've found to replicate your camo pattern.

Here is Richelieu after it's New York Refit 10 October 1943 (without the modified measure 32 camo which is in the works).

Hope you like it :D

These are really great! I think that the Richelieu was one of the best
designed battleships - just look at how many different armament fits
could be put on the same ship. I like the South Dakotas, but they could
never have been rearmed as many times, or as many ways as this lovely
ship - and the Richelieu has a graceful look that's all its own.
