Painting ww1 ships.

Hello everyone.

Does anyone know a good website or book which has info on what colours ships where for the great war.

Thanks for your time.

Looks like you can go nuts with 'dazzle' camouflage. Seeing as no two ships were painted exactly the same You probably can't really go wrong with whatever you decide the paint on your ships!

There are some Ospreys on the subject.
If you look on their website they sometimes have views of selected pages.
Gary, Glynis, and Alasdair (there are three of us, but we are too mean to have more than one login)
