The paint is off-white...its just that photo that has a hue of green to it. If you look at the other pics you'll see it's yellow/off-white. It is my understanding that only surface ships did the whole "officer's green" thing and the subs were exempt from it. Makes sense considering the layout of the compartments.

I know what objects to put in the staterooms. The problem is the texturing/materials. Unfortunately that pic does not confirm if it was kept stainless during her maiden years; instead they have that grey paint common in all of the restored photos.

Edit: I didn't see that second pic. Nice one, I like the angle, Thanks! It will come in handy when modeling that room.

Ok, I see some stainless in that pic. Its seems to be on the trim and on the bed sidewalls but thats it. The cabinets and other objects appear to be painted. Hmmm....
