Hi All!

*Note: Mods if this is in the wrong place please feel free to move it*

I'm at a loss on which grey to choose, hence the poll. I like all three so I've decided to let the world decide :)

Its not often you get to choose an air arm's colour scheme!!

Here's the origianl RLM 62 (ish) scheme:



1. Ocean/Medium Sea/Neutral grey:



2. RLM 75:



3. Dark Gull grey:



Thanks for all the input!!

Try not. Do. Or do not. There is no try.

Definitely the medium. The lighter grey suits the Indian Ocean better.

I actually prefer the original to all those choices. The blue/green tinge to the RLM 62 looks really nice, IMO.

I think the RLM75 has the best amount of blue in it for Ops. in the Indian Ocean, however I am not so sure about the South Atlantic.
Maybe you could have an East coast colour scheme and a West coast one.

^ Agreed! The RLM 62 original is my favourite but if a change is necessary, my vote goes to RLM 75.

Though individual South Atlantic & Indian Ocean schemes also has its appeal  ;D.

Is a change warranted? I keep thinking the RLM 62 scheme looks alot like the FAA shcemes from that same time period.
