Yip, only Naiad & Phoebe had the green/brown/white from completion until sometime early 1941. Phoebe's pattern is less striking, with less white.

PS I think thats the Black Prince done.
With references I was thinking of the colour codes. Especially HMS Naiad I don't think the green and the brown hit the colours RN used then (brown ought to be 'dark brown (1940)' and green either 'Western Approaches Green (1941) 5G 7/6' or 'Light Green (1940)').
Yes, HMS Black Prince is done. You can find her here: viewtopic.php?f=12&t=3266

Very smooth and good looking. A little nitpick; I'm pretty sure that the boats were painted grey too :D

Have to agree with Kim, Fred. The colorful variations of the lifeboats is peace-time only.

Darn it, wrong colours. Should the rafts be grey also?

:D Now she looks more right. Concerning the rafts I think you're right. You can look at my HMS Black Prince (1943) and copy paste from her ;)

Edit: BTW you can also copy paste my name. There is a misspelling in the credits :lol:

There was never a Dido class cruiser with US 5" guns. The only Royal Navy to be so armed was HMS Delhi, and she had only 5 single 5"/38 guns.
