Sell the ship to Clive Cussler and make it NUMA's new flagship. I'd have to re-watch 'Sahara' to see if they show some thing like an official color scheme ......

NUMA paints everything turquoise if I remember the books correctly, all-over turquoise for goodness sake!  :o

You mean sorta like the color in this pic?

Oh, Hell No! I would never paint a ship a turquoise color.
Modeling isn't just about how good the gluing or painting, etc. looks. It's also about how creative and imaginative you can be with a subject.
My modeling philosophy is: Don't build what everyone else has done. Build instead what nobody has seen or done before.

Blame Cussler, not us.  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

I agree with zenrat, looks good.  :thumbsup:

Although one could argue it's more Maersk Line blue than turquoise.  ;)
