But colours are amazing.
For example this La-5:

is painted from this:
http://www.sukhoi.ru/forum/attachmen...5&d=1200633375

But it is POSTWAR PAINTED aircraft. Colours were discussed, it is FULL new, NON WW II time colours (mix of green and blue for upper-surface)

anything having to do with a video game is entertainment and is not historical research.
as a model builder myself I would be interested in anything you have to making more accurate models of VVS aircraft of this period.
that profile was done by Chris Banyai-Riepl , not Erik Pilawskii
of course it has incorrect colors, most of the colors used during the GPW disappeared shortly after it ended.
you will note the photo credit listed with the profile states a photograph that was taken in 1945.
Mr Pilawskii knows full well that this aircraft was not green (in fact gray)and has been trying to tell people that for years, they are the ones who are not listening.

Correct colours (skin of Il-2:F.B. flight Sim, painted by VVS color researcher "Bomber"):

again, a profile by Mr. Reipl, not Mr. Pilawskii
it might even be as you say , but how do you prove it?
do you think this aircraft was painted in green and brown?

Yes , it is exactly these sources and factual information that I am after.
please be specific , let's get down to the details.
as for wrecked aircraft - what has the environment done to the paint on these aircraft after 60+ years? I hope no one expects them to look as if they just rolled off the factory floor.
