I thought we could had a bit more shade to represent a nude shining steel.
Anyway, as i'm not sure of its color scheme, i was wondering if i should redraw it in light grey (less shade....).

So i will!

ok.

The reason for the rule is that it should be easy for everyone else to modified the drawing, without having to use Photoshop or similar, the drawing must be able to be modified easy in paint. even when it's just nude steal... the rules a play to everything. the only new thing we have today is the 45 degrees rule for all underwater parts.

For what it's worth I doubt the Peral would have been shiny. She certainly isn't today.
“Close” only counts with horseshoes, hand grenades, and tactical nuclear weapons.
That which does not kill me has made a grave tactical error

According to the sources i've found, several very different color patterns were tested (it was a prototype).
So i initially choose to show a "default" color: unpainted.
