3D printed tugboat

This was my first attempt at 3D printing an RC boat. With plans to print a large navy ship I wanted to confirm that I could actually get a 3d printed boat running so I tried this file from Thingiverse. It still needs lights and paint but it runs surprisingly well. Power is from a 3s lipo and a brushless outrunner - pics in a later post. I'm planning to make an autonomous boat this year and this is a potential candidate

Printed from ASA and ABS filament on a Bambu X1 Carbon and glued together with acetone. Acetone dissolves ABS and ASA so it's also nice to dissolve the support scraps in a jar of acetone to make a filler putty.

You might notice the different colors on the suprtstructure, that's because it's just resting on top and can be knocked off and lost requiring a reprint

Does anyone have suggestions for a colour scheme?
