I would go with wooden crates for the boxes, myself. I know the wooden deck has a lot of woody tones already, but it would look more historically plausible (not historically [i]accurate[/i] - we are talking cargo boxes on flying ships, after all).J Womack, Esq.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14400879353685357966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8394074963215462822.post-58935362001299222472013-03-01T22:02:29.528-08:002013-03-01T22:02:29.528-08:00Thanks for the tips guys.

I'm leaning towards brown/grey containers ....only there is already heaps of brown for the nefs' wooden deck....<br /><br />Paul, check out my DropBox there is quite a bit of stuff for you to look through....evilleMonkeighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11998198938697175335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8394074963215462822.post-73541441790097350322013-03-01T16:25:14.822-08:002013-03-01T16:25:14.822-08:00For all that white, use a muted light brown wash, ...For all that white, use a muted light brown wash, it gives depth (maybe a tinge of rust effect) without the grubby look a think black ink would give.<br /><br />Re cargo containers - why not try a different route. Weight would be the major issue with aerial cargo so why waste weight on metal boxes - why not lighter wooden ones?<br />Paul O'Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08611720164170399684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8394074963215462822.post-11876042565528801252013-03-01T03:16:51.078-08:002013-03-01T03:16:51.078-08:00I would take a look at steam era model railway goo...I would take a look at steam era model railway goods vans as inspiration for cargo containers. Lots of grey and brown with some blue and green. Mostly muted but there is at least one bright yellow. Check out continental and American rolling stock as well.PatGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00379668269395518541noreply@blogger.com
