ship painting question
going to be ordering some more minis and paints in next few weeks. I have a question what color of gray should I buy from the GHQ paint line to get the gray on the modern ships like shown in all the GHQ mondern US ship photo'sand what color should I use for the ships deck?

Let me say up front that I have not used the GHQ colors...yet.
CLR16 MicroNaut Haze Gray should work for the hull and superstructure.
CLR14 MicroArmor Panzer Gray is probably a good approximation of the non-skid deck color on a modern US Navy warship.
I spent a little quality time on USS Enterprise (CVN-65) back when the world was young and I have seen my fair share of haze gray. I hope this helps.

Always respect the law of gross tonnage (aka "bigger boat wins")
