Guttorm has confirmed the general colour overall is grey to upper sufaces and white to the underside which is not 'standard'.
The grey upper colour is thought to be a possibility though as as both units were operating over the North Sea where this would be the best possible colour. Unfortunately here seems to be no documentation relating to these or any Kampfgeschwaders being instructed to paint over the upper surfaces in grey (not saying it did not).
Goof side picture. Would like to see some photos of the upper wings.

If anyone else has an opinion, please comment.

Hello Mark,
Thanks for your comments. I will try get some pictures of the upper wings, if you or anyone else on this board have other specific areas that could be "Kodak moments", please let me know about it, and I will try get this area photographed.
regards,
Tormod
