Hiya Brian, which vessel is it?


Whatever it is, it looks like it's gonna be another heavyweight!

Aw man, the now discontinued Testors Acryl model paint line had a great out-of-the-bottle color for that exhaust stack, labeled, interestingly enough, Jet Exhaust.
That not being available, a mix of silver, bronze, and a touch of a pale grey, might be enough.
