Thanks to all of you. Most of the Haburg Harbour Film had been colourised and Gustloff had a red waterline in the film but all previous modellers have opted for green in their KDF version. Yellow tones would have registerred white on B&W film and if you look at the HAPAG funnels the colourisers have left the yellow as a very pale grey. I painted a couple of castings with a different "buff" colours, Racing White (very pale cream) then pale sand (too dark), British Rail cream (too rich) and finally my go to White Star buff, Raydome Tan, which is a little lighter than light sand and I am going with that. I've just the masts to paint now for the Antics Website photographs, so you should be able to see the results by Monday.
