rdg-barry OFFLINE Road Foreman of Engines Posts: 378 Thank you received: 44	Another question... hopefully someone knows...! Getting ready to start painting!! From the color pictures I have for reference, it appears the upper deck is painted white? The main deck seems to be brown (wood)? Most everything else is green with red trim, yellow railings and some white trim - yes? Thanks!!

Hello and Happy Labor Day....

I have made great progress this weekend (so far) and it looks like the tug will be complete this coming week... IF I can get your help.

I really need advice on the upper and main deck colors and pilot roof color. In one picture it looks like the upper deck and roof are painted white. I have not seen a color photo of the main deck clearly enough. I have also seen a color photo where the upper deck is green. I'm guessing that the main deck would be a darker color - maybe gray?

I'm just about ready to do final assembly, but want to get the main deck painted first. Any info you may have would be grateful!!

Thanks,
Barry
