Merchant Camouflage
 
Just saw this in a documantation about u-boat war. There they showed ships gathering at Halifax and getting prepared for the convoy voyage.

I wonder if we have already such skin for merchants? Perhaps something for the merchant mod pack? :D

Occasionally an ordinary cargo ship or tanker would have a camoflage paint scheme that was more elaborate than the usual overall gray color. This was most common on British merchantmen or on ships that were being used as auxiliaries. I included several camoflage paint schemes for the Empire Freighter and the CAM-ship.
