Re: Exotic Me 262 "Black 4" Paint Scheme Interpretation
Personally, I would go with the standard RLM 81/82/76...as the pattern itself is not something out of the ordinary. Standard pattern usually calls for standard colors.
And as mentioned, the LIGHT RLM76...not the standard blueish one.
To speed up production time, they stopped priming aircraft (RLM02) internally after 1943 or so...and then altogether after 1944. So there would be no primer on outer surfaces.
The nose was made of steel...and as such, would have had "some" sort of paint on it, which appears to be the white shade of RLM76...so I would also do the nose in this RLM76 as well.
