Well I am wondering, and have done for some while, if the base colour is actually a light '02 derivative, then crossed with 70/71/ OR 80, and the infills are actually 79...
This would tie in well with lots of other goins on , and would make at least as much sense from a ground concealment point of view.
Alternatively, some JG54 FW190 colour photo's (not great quality but nevertheless) show an unidentified but very bright medium green being used.. could it be the infill colour?
I just cannot see the point of respraying brand new aircraft in the discussed pattern using 74/75, seems a total waste of time to me.
Who know, back to the colour image request..
