With the outbreak of World War I, Liners were called into service by the British government to act as Troop Transports, Hospital Ships, Auxiliary Cruisers and even Commerce Raiders.
But for all their suitability, passenger liners were never intended to endure the rigors of sea warfare. As far as is known no liner has ever been constructed with amour plating, anti-torpedo bulges or any other structural features to afford them protection from attack.
The Liners best attribute to contribute to its well-being during war time was its speed. In addition to a liners speed the Admiralty investigated and implemented camouflage schemes. Dazzle as it became popularly known as called for ships to be painted in bright, contrasting colors, in strong geometric shapes, to make it difficult for a submarine to determine the ships bearing, speed and identity.
This project will be of the Olympic in one of I believe 3 “dazzle” color scheme of the war.
What makes this project difficult is the fact that there is very little information and photos to go by. Each ship had 2 dazzle patterns at a time. One for port and one for starboard. So when you find a photo on the web you have to try to then find the corresponding side.
I was able to find detailed drawings with color index for the "Type 19" scheme which was the Olympics first but not a lot of character in my opinion.
Back when I first started this build this color pallet didn't exist but now it does and its just in time.
Time for some squadron Green putty
are you going to glaze the port holes and add some interior lighting.
