What should I paint the Yangtze Submarine? (from fallout 4)

Those (likely few) peeps who have looked at Underwater Update #5 will know that the next submarine on the release list is the Yangtze from Fallout 4.

As you all might know, the one in the game's a rusted wreck trapped near the shore for over 200 years after hitting a mine, so there's not exactly anything left in terms of paint. BUT! I'm building a functional one, so it only makes sense that I give it a 'pre war' paint job. Problem is, I am not quite decided on what I want for it, but I have a few ideas!

1 Light Blue/blue-Grey and Red

A color I've seen depicted on some pictures of the Ming Class submarine. A unique color pallet for sure, though what puts me on the fence is whether the colors would fit the design.

2 Grey and red

A classic color for submarines, grey with red underneath. Possible good balance between being distinctive while fitting the design.

3 Other

Some other color that might be suggested.

I'm open to some feedback! Though I won't demand it, I still got plenty of time to think about what to color it. After all the sub itself is currently still in the stage where I build the model, and not yet even at the stage where I scale it. Still, among my followers (and anyone else interested) I'd like to hear your suggestions!
