Interior color of Fokker Dr-1

Hi everyone:
I'm an aircraft modeler about to build an old Aurora Dr-1 kit. Does anyone know what color the interior is supposed to be? Thanks in advance for the help.

...from all the photos I've seen it was a dark shade of gray.

Sorry, I just had to say it. I really haven't a clue, but hopefully someone else here does. Good luck, anyhow.

Based on all the other models Ive seen, the inside was red!
Sorry--maybe the 3rd answer will be useful..

Hi,

I'm sure the Dr.I was the same as the very early Fokker built D.VII, and it was simply the natural unpainted linen, but the color of the exterior paint would almost come through to the interior when the heavy "streaking" of the freshly loaded paint brush was applied. It was the same with the later lozenge covered D.VIIs, where the pattern would nearly come through the fabric on the interior.

Remember, the fuselage tubing was wrapped so as to prevent chaffing and to have something to sew onto, to anchor the fabric.

Best,
Dave W.

Pete,
I have the Aurora SE5 it's the same no detail on the underside of the wings!it has decals but how you put them on over the engravings is beyond me.I decided to paint the ones etched on the plastic.
The surprise is that the markings are 100% accurate for McCudden's SE5 I've just built it for the novelty value,theres even a little man swinging the prop!.
