Sorry to be a pain Newcomer what about the Engine Nacelles?

When you say "Dark Earth, Dark Green & Light Blue Grey" are you meaning that these are specific colours used by the VVKJ or do you mean they are imported RAF or imported German paints? During this period the VVKJ were only using imported colours from Britain & Germany. So when the aircraft was repainted from Italian to current camouflage after being passed to luftwaffe units what colours were used? RLM? RAF?

Thanks for you time

Clint
