I add some pics concerning the progress, first, according to the advice of Mr. Ferdinando D'Amico, I have overpainted with a darker grey, the same used for the fuselage, the obliteration of the German insigna on the wings, obtaining a better low contrast with the wing camouflage; then I have mounted the under wings guns and the tail wheel, taking care of reproducing the leather cover and I have performed the obliteration on the lower wings surface; let me have your opinion

Great work. The obliteration of the top wing Blakan crosses look ok now.

I agree, upperwings overpainting looks more realistic now. But wasn't more logical the GAC1 (or the light green you used) for undersides? Personal opinion, of course.
Have you any info on the matter?

Ciao,

Stefano

Ciao Stefano; the Grigio Azzurro Chiaro 1 was the color I had used before, it matched perfectly with the CMPR reference for GAC1 but the contrast is the one in the pics I had previously posted, it was too strong; so also D'Amico has suggested the use of a darker grey, like for the fuselage camouflage, probably prepared on the field

Thank you, Rick.
The camo of your model is of great effect.
