Blue "camouflage" paint scheme is correct for USN BB's at Pearl Harbour in Dec 41.
There is some debate about the colour of the main turret tops but the blue for the hull is documented.
Plain grey I think may apply in early 41, before the wartime paint scheme was implemented.

THX for the info!  ;)  Honestly - I'm not an expert in the field of  U.S. Navy skips camouflage during the initial period of War in the Pacyfic.
Inspired by some photos I thought that they are painted in more or less something like light blue-gray camouflage...  :P
like this:


Cheers!  ;)
