I dunno, but here is a very complete kit build/review that I think you should study carefully:

Especially notice the need for weights in the main float.

 

As for which paint, as an old hand-bristle-brush painter, I have found Testors MM enamels and acrylics to be very good so I couldn't say, but here is a page with a commentary on Humbrol:

Looking good Erwin! 

 

Is it grey or cockpit-colour behind the seat under the glass ?

 

 

 

IIRC, the cockpits themselves were all Nakajima interior green (close to RAF interior green) but I believe that back turtle deck area was usually black, same as the IP hood:
