Topic review - Bismarck/Tirpitz colour

From the manual, it states XF-54 Dark Sea Grey for the main parts of the hull (above waterline) and also for the superstructure. This is incorrect as we know now that the hull is a darker gray and the superstructure is lighter.

I would consult the Bismarck/Tirpitz discussion in the CASF-Battleships section where the subject of correct colour is discussed ad infinitum but some have suggested:

XF-53 neutral grey for the hull
XF-19 sky grey--turrets, superstructure

Can someone give me the correct Tamiya colour code for the main hull and superstructure of the Bismarck/Tirpitz (not the camouflage colours)

Thanks in advance
