Title: Victorian livery on HMS Sentinel & HMS Skirmisher ?
Post by: linux on 03 September 2009, 16:33:11
The Dean's Marine website has photographs of completed models of HMS Sentinel and HMS Skirmisher, both in an attractive Victorian livery.

However both ships were completed in 1905, by which time gray had become standard.

Do the folks here have any evidence for the Victorian livery on these ships? Or did artistic license trump the available evidence; photographs always show them in drab gray.
