The colour scheme will be my interpretation of the 1940 RAF Whaleback Series 2 RAF high speed rescue launch using the Railway Paints.

This is what I have come up with. I will add the hydraulic hoist and R.I.B. during the week plus a few touch-ups.

That's great!  :thumbsup:

It's close to real world, the Severn Class prototype was finished in yellow as a trial.

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

I really liked the original finished look. Spot on to me. The orange rails make it a bit too busy.

Sorry Captain, I got a bit carried away and splashed one of the railings as I didn't have any yellow paint the Day-Glo orange was used.
