Re: Blue or Blue-Gray Camouflage on Bf 109E
I have had long discussions with Ken Merrick and Claes Sundin concerning RLM 74. Well, perception of colour is variable among people but at least according to my eyeballs, all the samples of authentic 74 looked for me a dark neutral grey, perhaps with a drop of green but definetelly not a grey-green. This of course could be due to fading or different paint composition, but it is noticeable, most of German fighters from the period 1941-1945 is described as "silver".
That said I believe that several reports of green-brown German aircraft were of 71/02 painted ones, perhaps in a distorting lighting. |
