I decided to show how I work, especially when I have line drawings available. Otherwise, I do it by hand, pixel for pixel! ;)

First, I mark the lines with a highly visible color:

Then I start to color the such that I get out all the odd pixels I do not want:

Pre-colored with a darker blue color such that the contrast between the blue and red is more visible. so I easily can see that I have removed all the odd pixels.

Now I have removed the blue color and made red to black (left-click on the red color, then right click on the black color. Then use the eraser and keep in the right mouse button and begin to move over the drawing with it.). so now I'm ready to start the real work, to get all the details correct.

You could turn that into a tutorial for new members Heuhen.

Very good approach to show this step by step and from tutorial point of view, I think. Also, for me (as a newbie) it would be great if you (or someone else) could explain/show where/which are these small details: antennas, weather equipment, jammers etc. I know this information is possible to gather after years of investigation of different sources but since I'm lazy, I'd like to see them in this example :mrgreen: Bucket is also an information channel, isen't it?

It took some time because I was not satisfied with it.

shouldn't you try to use the colors the Hamina SB drawing is using. Of what Im experimented (and trust me I've experimented a lot!) its the best scheme descriping the finnish navy camoflage suite. the Grey color is bit offplaced

Looks great, Heuhen! Thank you for this. Maybe some day I can do something like this since there are plenty of small vessels in our Navy waiting for publishing in this scale... :)
