trudging along
there are a quite a few factors to papermodel designing. factors such as scaling, build ability vs rivet count accurate. color is always a pain in the behind. I've been experimenting with the old canon pixma 400, and deck colors. as this is prewar, before paint "measures" the Wichita will be navy gray. in most of the black and white photos this shows up as white. the actual rgb values on my printer render the model a pale blue, almost the hue I would want for early sea blue for say the midway colored enterprise. I took a different approach and color sampled finished plastic kits at steel navy and kinda averaged them out. still has a little blue in it but better.
