Bob Pearson has a colour profile in side and top view of DDU on the internet. I don't have the address handy but you can find him through Internet Modeler. His drawing is based on Dan Abbott's work.
If I may comment, read all you can especially Albatros Productions Fokker D.VII volume 1 and 2.
Volume 2 carries an article on DDU. The article by Dave Roberts is well worth reading. Regardless of what all have said in the past nobody knows for sure how it was painted. Also listen to Dan and Greg, they are both very knowlegable about aircraft of this era. Weight all the evidence and then make up your own mind.
As to DDU manufacturer, the Jasta 4 war diary says they received a batch of Fokker D.VII built by O.A.W. on June 13 1918. Don't take my word. Check with the Ed Ferko Collection,I believe it is kept at the University of Texas.
